A lot has happened this month for my family, and I'd like to update you guys! As I revealed in my very first post, my wife and I have been trying to conceive baby #2. We've inseminated three times in our journey, and spread the insemination's out from October to April. After the third insemination, during the dreaded "two-week-wait", I tried my very best to avoid looking for the little twinges and signs. I also avoided taking pregnancy tests before 10dpo (days post ovulation), which was nerve racking. I told God it was in his hands and I trusted him, I let go of controlling the situation and actually blindly trusted Him. Ladies and Gents, I tested on 12dpo, I got a negative. I thought it was too soon to test, with my first child it took until missing my period to get a positive test (even with the early detection tests). So I waited until the day before my missed period to test again, I got my first positive! It was a Dollar Tree test and it was a faint positive
so Wifey and I went to the store to get some First Response tests to confirm.
Sure enough, we got another positive! To be extra sure I took another test with first morning urine the next day and got another positive. Now, I am still quite young (22), I do not have any fertility issues but, it's a little harder for us to conceive. I say it's harder considering we have to buy sperm (which we do through a private group,not a bank), and only get one sample. It's basically a hit and miss kind of process for us, but the third time was a charm! I am currently 4 weeks and 4 days into this pregnancy and I have shared the news with our family and VERY close friends only. Since you guys don't personally know me outside of my blog, I thought it would be awesome to tell you. Stay tuned for more posts, now every Thursday or Friday!
