My journey.

>:This is my journey to conceive our first baby:<

♥ My husband and i originally planned to have a baby at age 24 and we are 21 and 20 now. On September 10th 2011 by period was a day late and i decided to take a pregnancy test cause i felt a little weird. I took a total of 6 pregnancy tests in a course of 4 days, 2 digital and the others were lines. The lined ones was one dark line and one very faint line. At this time i wasn't knowledgeable about pregnancy complications because my family and friends had always gotten pregnant so fast. I know this is cruel but when my husband and i initially found out i was pregnant we decided that we weren't going to keep it because it wasn't on the time that we planned, but days passed and we inclined more into keeping the baby.
♥ On September 15 2011 we went to a women's clinic to get a confirmed pregnancy test and an ultrasound. The pregnancy test came out positive but there was nothing on the ultrasound. They told me that it could have been too early to detect anything and they also gave me a pamphlet on Ectopic Pregnancy and was told to come back in a week to recheck for the fetus. The very next day i began spotting and got worried so i called the clinic and they told me if i didn't have any pain it was implantation bleeding so i got very excited. As the day passed the bleeding turned bright red and the cramping began. I was cramping for two days and bleeding like a normal period. So i began losing hope, but a little part of me still thought i would still have the baby due to unstop research about pregnancy and hearing about other women's stories. Unfortunately i kept bleeding and clotting (sorry if its tmi). But still i had hope the fetus was still there.
♥ September 21st 2011 came along and it was time to get the second check on the fetus. While we waiting for a week we were already planning on our next real attempt to have a baby so we didn't feel that bad, my husband has been very supportive about everything and i thank him for being such an amazing person, if it wasn't for him giving me hope i think i would have seriously had a mental breakdown and done something horrible to myself. But yea the day came and we went in sorta neutral minded. Of course as i had already done a bunch of research i went in the clinic telling them that i was sure i had a miscarriage, and i was right. It didn't feel that bad though because my husband and i knew for sure what was going on and we planned on another real try.
♥ Well it is now September 23 2011, and although im a noob at the whole ovulation thing im doing my best to calculate everything, anyways my husband and i are having baby making sex every other day, and enjoying it very much. ( i think it a good thing to enjoy it and make it as least "obligatory" as possible ) If next month we don't get a sticky baby or even any baby at all i will buy the OPK and see how that works out. I started taking prenatal vitamins also. If were going to do this were going to do this right!!

:::Stay tuned for updates!:::
