Guest guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 , congratulations! Guess it was meant to be. Becky mom of Ricky 7 with CF and Andy 5 no CF Clinic Visit/ a surprise The other thing is, despite birth control, I seem to be pregnant. Just a few weeks, I think. I go for a blood test tomorrow and will have the " official " result on Monday. I am nervous about this and all the testing that will have to go through, but either way we will have the baby (if I am actually pregnant. I've done 2 home tests, both positive, but I am having some trouble digesting the info and will believe it when the official word comes in from the doc's office) Anyway, I want to be happy about this but am feeling a bit conflicted as we were not planning to have a baby now and really can't afford it-hence the birth control. I know, we will work it out but I find it a bit stressful now. I really am happy too though! I am excited about being pregnant (I actually liked it all the way up until the last month of my pregnancy with despite the horrible heat we had.) I am excited to bring a new little person into the world. I'll stop babbling now. Mom of , 5 with CF and ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Congratulations!! What a blessed event!! I on the other hand I never liked being pregnant. By the way, one of my dear friends once told me, if you wait to have a child when you can afford it, you will never have one, :-) Good news all the way around, may be a tall slender child, so don't worry if she did not loose any weight then is good. > Hi, > had her clinic visit today and all went well. She grew 1.4 cm but didn't gain any weight. On the other hand she didn't lose any either so I guess it is ok. Her doc isn't worried, so I am choosing not to stress over it (OK I am choosing to TRY not to stress over it) > The other thing is, despite birth control, I seem to be pregnant.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Babies are SO great. I don't want to get your hopes up before you hear from the doctor, but this would be a great Christmas announcement! Congrats, Gale > Hi, > had her clinic visit today and all went well.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 All will be fine, Remember this wasn't your plan, but someone else bigger than all of us. I know you will be wonderful with this one. My daughter had ERIN (with CF) & then 2 more daughters who aren't even carriers. Yes, it is possible. Of course , there is the chance it wont be that way, BUT you will handle it. We are holding you in all the best thoughts there are .. You are right . a new wee one is a gift . & will be for you both!! Love & hugs. GRANDMOMBEV Clinic Visit/ a surprise Hi, had her clinic visit today and all went well.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 , Congratulations. There must be a angel out there waiting for a family. Let us know how it all goes. My son who is 9 isn't even a carrier so I wish the non cf result for your baby. (Australia) Clinic Visit/ a surprise Hi, had her clinic visit today and all went well.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Thanks for writing, Jan. (Oh, I still need to send you that book, don't I... Jeez I'm such a slacker!) I'm doing okay. The grand jury hearing in my ex-husband's case was last month, and thankfully he was indicted. The trial is set for November 17. The boys are doing okay... Ricky has had a little cough lately which had me nervous but it's not too bad. Could definitely be worse. He's been out of the hospital almost a year (will be a year November 20) and I'm hoping we can push it wayyyy past a year. Andy's in kindergarten and he's having a hard time behaviorally. I'm going to an SST/parent teacher meeting today to see what we can do for him. He's so tense and high-strung... Just needs things consistent I guess. We are going to Disneyland just before Christmas. In January we're moving, pending the juvenile dependency court hearing. I've met a man online (lives in Oregon) and he's found a job down here and is moving down here in January too. He's an RN! And he'll be working at a satellite ward of Packard, at a local hospital. It's all very exciting. Becky mom of Ricky 7 with CF and Andy 5 no CF Re: Clinic Visit/ a surprise > , congratulations!
