I know that this group is not for announcements of pregnancy, and that is not the point of me making it.

My husband and I have been trying for 2 years. Appointments, procedures, tests, fertility drugs, tracking, the whole works. We were beginning to lose hope and I told him last month that I did not want to keep going with the medications because I felt sick after taking them so often.

Today, we went to our county fair and rode rides. After one particular ride, I began to feel sick to my stomach, and we left. I realized when we got home that I hadn't taken a test before going but we'd had so many negatives before, I was sure it wouldn't be positive this time, but I felt i should take one just to be sure. Sure enough, I took two tests, we had a double positive.

Of course, we are over the moon with excitement and will be making an appointment with the doctor next week.

I wanted to share this because I completely understand the frustration and loss of hope that many of you are experiencing. It was the longest two years of our lives, and I cannot begin to tell you how happy we are that we waited for this miracle. Don't lose hope, keep going. Your time will come too. 🧡
