Looks like I have to want no more....
I just found out last night that I am expecting.
My fiance is more stoked than I am...I guess it hasn't fully hit me yet.It explains a lot, I have been very drowsy lately, wanting to sleep in.I have seemed to have lost my appetite too, which didn't happen with my last pregnancy.
I have been feeling a constant bloat too.I didn't even have to go off the pill...seems it isn't 100 % effective :/
soooo, we are planning for the move to happen a bit sooner than we had originally planned :) WOW,huh?

Congratulations. It sounds like you will be having alot of things going on in the near future. I seen your other posts about names for the baby. I think Nicole is pretty also for a girls name. I also like the name Star.

Congratulations - hope all is well :)
Yeah I know a few people who fell pregnant on the pill as well... although most were on antibiotics at the time and forgot that antibiotics cancel out the pill!!
Glad that you are happy about it... it will sink in soon enough. Good Luck for it all

thank you
I wan't on an antibiotic, but I had a stomach flu...we think that may be the cause, not enough being absorbed or something? either way, it was a blessing...ty

Congratulations! I am happy for you and your fiance! I have had 4 children and some of my symptoms were the same with all of them and I also had different ones. I do know that the way you carry the baby have NOTHING to do with the gender! I carried my first son extremely high and my second son in my lap.
I figured out that I was pregnant with my 4th because I got what they call "mother's mask" or something like that. I was putting my make up on in the mirror and noticed the darker tan like pigment across my nose and cheeks.
I tested almost immedietely and got a positive. :)

If you are taking antibiotics they render the pill useless.
Congrats on expecting a new bundle of joy. My youngest is almost 5 and when I see a newborn I get that baby fever sometimes.
My oldest will be 12 in July so I have awhile to go before becoming a grandma (at least I better!)
I love babies they are such a bundle of joy.

well I wasn't on it for very long, I think that may have a little to do with it ?? no antibiotics though, but I did have a stomache flu about two months ago ,give or take a week or so..the doctor said that could have effected the pill's effectiveness.I have had the fever for a couple months, or maybe it was the fact that I was already carrying?lol..thank you for your comment, very kind :)
