Expecting

Well, baby #2 is on his/her way! We are due in January and are about 12 weeks along now. It's a relief to be through that first trimester even if it is just a number. We had been trying again for almost a year and had made the decision that we were not going to pursue fertility treatments this time around. Two months after making that decision we found out we were pregnant! I've been feeling terrible all day sickness but that's always reassuring to me that baby is developing the way he/she should be.
It's been such a strange experience this time around. In a lot of ways it feels like a first pregnancy for us. It was the first time we'd ever seen a positive pregnancy test. When we were doing treatments to get pregnant with W we couldn't do pregnancy tests because I was on so many drugs it would have shown a false positive. So it was blood tests and more blood tests and only until we saw the heartbeat did we feel like we could actually relax a little and not fear another miscarriage.
We have had a lot of fun announcing it to family and friends this week and have already begun reorganizing our house to make room for another baby. It'll be an adjustment for everyone I know but we are excited about the challenge and are eternally grateful for the opportunity to witness another miracle being born.
