So here we are.
Trying to conceive baby #2.
Ben and I decided this a few nights ago that it is a good time!
When we found out that my Dad can put me on his health insurance, we both said aloud together...time for another baby! :)
Back in the beginning of February I had a miscarriage, he/she would've been due in September.
We have name him/her our little Ember. :)
Now after almost 4 months, we are ready to get serious about this. We haven't been on birth control anyway, but now we are actually taking about it and letting people know.
Before I conceived Ember in December Ben and I already discussed waiting until November of 2012. So when #2 was born Josiah would be 2 1/2 years old, hopefully potty trained by then.
Then when I found out I was pregnant in January, we were both very surprised and didn't expect it. We were happy but a little scared because we weren't ready, this baby was going to come 10 months earlier than planned. By fall of next year we would have been a more financially stable. I don't regret getting pregnant, and I don't regret going through what I went through. It was painful, but I'm a stronger, wiser person. Now I can't wait for our next chapter in life!
It's still a little early, but now we have a new goal. To get pregnant before November. We will see what God has in store for us. These next several months are going to be challenging yet exciting. I'm not going to be one of those people that freak out and think that I'm pregnant just because of a simple symptom, or take a hpt before my period even starts. We are taking it one day at a time and enjoying our lives together. I do know when I ovulate, the woman's body is a very complex wonderful thing. But I'm not focusing on that, we are just focusing on having fun and although some around us are pressuring it, they don't know the true story and I just have to politely smile and tell them, "We are trying but right now it's all in God's hands". Don't like the answer? Well tough, I don't like it either. But it's true and that's the only answer that I can think of. He will bless us at the right time, we just don't know when that is.
So, this post is just updating you all about our lives.
Hopefully soon we can announce our Rainbow baby!
Thanks for reading.
