I have to share this great news or what I hope will continue to be great news for me and my family. We are pregnant according to our pregnancy test taken yesterday. I did also go to the doctor and get a blood test to assist in confirming our pregnancy. I get the sense that he was shocked that we had gotten a positive home pregnancy  result being that my last menstrual cycle.
This has gotten me wondering if maybe we are little more pregnant than we think that we are.  THis is one of the reasons that I asked for blood test as opposed to the urine test to confirm our pregnancy. The second reason is related to our last loss which was an ectopic pregnancy. I want to make sure we have  a starting HCG number and hope it will give us an idea how far along we are.
OK, now the symptoms that make me sure that I am pregnant and possibly further along than I think I am. Well, for the last three days My breasts have hurt and I have felt like crap. How does crap feel like you ask? I have felt nausea, sore back and just not myself. The other day I also found myself feeling very tired and it was only noon. I just now need to figure out how I can take a nap everyday at work and also how to deal with decreasing the amount of coffee I drink. I dont drink alot compared to most people I know but I do drink enough that I now my doctors will say to stop. 
Well keep posted as I plan to blog more often as each week my body changes and I continue this amazing journey of pregnancy.
I can't wait for my first ultrasound to confirm we have a viable pregnancy, and here my babies heartbeat.

Well I am sure glad I was able to read my post operative report. I know my blood type is O+ and that yes I still have my fallopian tube intact after my laproscopic surgery to remove the pregnancy. It is amazing what they notate in their reports. It is also interesting to see what they  look while they are inside there, Good to know my appendix and such look healthy. I also got the hormone test back which from what I can tell did not say much. I will have to seek more information or just wait till we test to see if we are pregnant or if we will need to keeping enjoying the process of trying.

Have ever tried to get information from a doctors office over the phone? it is practically impossible to get anything more than you need to come and see them or I can't prove you are you. There has to be a way to verify a persons identity and give out the info you need. Well the bright side is I will be able to get an idea on whether I still have my right Fallopian tube like I think I do or if the doctor I saw on Saturday is right and they always have to remove it for an ectopic pregnancy.

It has been awhile since I posted to this blog but doing so now as i have something to share.  A couple of days ago I started have a cylindrical feeling pain on my right side. This is the same side that we had our ectopic pregnancy on and it got me wondering if I was experiencing ovulation pain. The next day I felt the same pain and on the third day I was feeling like I was going to puke while trying to change my sons diaper and get ready for work. By the fourth day I went to the doctor to get checked out and he felt around the area, asked a few questions and then gave me a test to get get my hormone levels checked. He said that it was a place to start but not likely the reason for my symptoms. Why not you ask? He is insistent that when they do surgery for an ectopic that theyalways have to remove the tube. I was pretty sure that she had been able to save it and when I got home so was my hubby. It is now the fifth day of feeling off and the pain is mostly gone in that spot but I still feel nausea and some discompfort. The pain now feels like it is more centered and likely mu uterus. I also am feeling tired despite a decent nights sleep. So it begs the question am I paranoid or not?
