I guess I’m just THAT fertile?

TLDR; I got pregnant with my second baby after having sex for the first time in 7 months.

I am 12 months postpartum with my first. Sex was not a priority for either of us, but our marriage remained healthy regardless. After a while, I mentioned we needed to work on finding time for it and my husband mentioned he would like to start trying for baby #2.

I was hesitant, but knew it took a while to get pregnant with the first so agreed to try. Neither of us thought it would happen, because we had sex at the very end of my fertile window and the odds were small; or so our app claimed. I’m very in tune with my body and track my cycles regularly.

Wouldn’t you know that the first and only time we had sex in 7 months produced a VERY positive pregnancy test 2 weeks later? I was 3 days late, which is abnormal for me. First test was a DARK dye stealer. Next two were just as positive. Blood HCG is tomorrow. My tests with the first baby were not as dark, though I tested earlier with him.

While we are excited, we are just dumbfounded. We understand the science and the odds of becoming pregnant. I feel guilty for not being more excited, as I was over the moon when we learned about the first baby. Now I just have to cross my fingers that it’s not twins! It was my very first thought when I saw that DARK positive line vs my first baby’s faint line.
