Well it is official. I took a test on Wednesday night after I came home, and a pale pink second line showed up!!
I'm Pregnant!!!!!
Right now I'm around 4 weeks, and I have have already made my first OB appointment. My new doctor is Dr Dickson (I'm pretty sure I went to school with one of her daughters), and the appointment is on the 8th, when I'll be 8 weeks. I told Dr Dickson's nurse that I have had 2 previous miscarriages, and she said if I want, I can come in and do a blood test to monitor my levels but I don't think I want that. She also said that if I see any bleeding at all, don't hesitate to call her.
That said, if you are reading this and I haven't already told you in person/call, I apologize. My previous losses are making me nervous, and I don't want to have to tell everyone again if I do miscarry. Make it easier on myself and Ken.
That also being said, if you are reading this, please do not tell anyone else. I want to wait until the heartbeat appointment until I tell the free world. I'm trying to be optimistic but I am still nervous about this whole thing. Obviously so.
Please continue positive thoughts and prayers for me, and I will continue updates as they come I guess. Thanks everyone!

Congratulations!!!! And I'm praying for the little baby and for you and Ken.
Thank you both, I'm more optimistic this time. A dear friend of mine has been praying for me a lot, and actually told me that while at church about 3 weeks ago, she had a moment where God told her He would bless me with a baby. Taking that as a good sign! One day at a time. Thanks again for all of your support, both of you :)
Congratulations! Exercise will help you stay in shape during pregnancy; this can also lower your risk of miscarriage, and has been proven to help reduce labor complications and length. Best wishes to you and your baby!
