Thank you for your message & congrats on your good news! I understand
about seeing all the pregnant women...it seems that when you are trying
to get pregnant everyone you see is pregnant! You are so happy for them
but it hurts. I know I am lucky that I have to healthy girls, but you
dream about the future the min the test comes back positive, maybe if
the tests weren't so accurate so early it wouldn't be so bad.
I have received the same info about starting over & see no reason to
wait. Hopefully I will have news in a couple of months! We are a little
scared & have said we are not telling general public until at least 14
weeks! Just in case! Good luck in the future and let us know what's up
with the new addition!
