42 and pregnant with my 🌈!!!!!!!

Ma

4 days of positives, I'm finally ready to make my Glow announcement!

AF was due 5/15 and I was on vacation! Sometimes she comes a few days early or late but always right around those days. So I packed for it, prepared if she did show a few days early.

I vacationed like it was my JOB! Drinks, seafood, sun. AF always on the back of my mind, with each bathroom visit, would she be there?

So the 15th comes along, no show. I'm suspicious but say nothing to my BF. We literally had sex 2x during the entire month prior to vacation, so I wasn't really thinking it was possible!

We've been trying about 2 years now. June 2017 we fell pregnant and had a mmc in July. We kept trying, everything! In April 18 we thought we did it again, but alas a chemical 😪. So we started seeing a doctor for our unexplained infertility. Tests came out good, BF even has super sperm. We did clomid, gonal f, multiple IUIs. All heartbreaking and beyond stressful. And very limited resources for infertility where we live. Then, my infertility doc went DARK! in speaking to the nurse and my pcp I'm under the impression he was forced out of practice for an incident! Yikes!!!!!

Now what?!?!?!?

I had given up. No tracking, though I know my body and can even feel ovulation. I just tried to stop paying attention. Focus on my vacation which was so badly needed.

So the 16ths comes, travel day back to reality. After about my 6th ridiculous pee stop, sitting in the airport, he looks at me incredulously and says, what are you pregnant????

I just looked at him blankly. Am i???

We got home that evening and after getting settled back at home I dug out my TTC kit, found some hpts and checked. HOLY MOLY.

Ideally I'd have loved to surprise the BF but I was in such shock. I said, honey I need you to look at something in here, tell me what you see. He picked up the stick and was in complete disbelief!!!! He immediately ran to the store for more tests.

I keep testing, 4 days now and that 2nd line isn't going anywhere at all!

Now I've spoken w my PCP who called my old infertility office to go over my chart. That doc recommended when I got a positive hpt to take progesterone daily through 12 weeks. So that's the plan while I look to find an OB-gyn to take good care of us!!!!

Symptoms: that I feel like my period is coming light crampiness in my uterus, my breast tenderness really just started, queasiness and trouble eating!

Due, based strictly on LMP is Jan 22, 2020!!

I actually said on day 1 of my vacation, looking at a thunderstorm roll through, will I EVER get my rainbow?
