Christmas Miracle

My SO and I had a long journey to getting pregnant with our first daughter. We tried for a year on our own. After that we sought help and my Midwife told me to try for another year, because she believed that I was healthy. After the second year TTC we did all of the testing necessary to find out what was going on. We found that my SO had low/rapidly dropping sperm count with bad quality sperm. We did two <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>'s. For the second one I needed to sign a waiver for because his sperm count had dropped below the minimum amount for an <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> at the clinic we went to. When I went to the office for my blood test the nurse told me that my hcg levels were very low, but she wanted me to come back in a couple days to try again. When I went back my levels had dropped and I was told to stop taking progesterone. A few weeks after that I had not gotten my period so I tested. That test came back positive. I was so shocked and so was the office. That was in 2020. We have a beautiful DD.

A couple of weeks ago I started felling sharp pains in my uterus. I thought I had a cysts. The pain went on until my expected period date(which I don't track anymore, because I believed that I could not get pregnant naturally by my SO). I took a hcg pregnancy test and a clearblue yesterday and the came back positive!!!! I'm am still dumbfounded. We got pregnant naturally, and by accident. I never thought it would happen for us.

*Sidebar we are getting married in March, I have the dress and I have no idea what we are going to do!

Nevertheless I have downloaded all of my old pregnancy tracking apps and I am so excited. 😊
