When did you get your first BFP? NOv 2....AF was 5 days late...after a miscarriage and 4 months of bfn I just didn't want to risk another bfn...i wanted to be sure!!

Was it a planned pregnancy or a total surprise?very very planned

How did you tell DH/SO and other children? Dh was walking out the door to work when I came home from work and I toldhim I was going to test...he said he had to leave and since he didn't think I was pregnant he left. I called him 3 min later on the cell phone..he was schocked!!

Did you have any symptoms prior to getting your BFP?slight nausea when I was hungry

After you found out that you were preggers, were you hoping for a girl or a boy? A girl...but I wouldn't change Ewan for the world.

How did you feel for the first trimester? ok...tired and a bit nauseas

Any specific cravings that you remember? steak, steak and more steak...and rare..it's funny cuz Ewan wont touch meat with a ten foot poll...lol.

What was your labor and birth experience like on a scale of 1-10?5 it wasn't horrible but it wasn't the birth I wanted...I ended up having drugs and an epi which I didn't want. It was long long long and I was exhausted. I had a catheter which I hated!! There was meconium staining, his heart rate dropped after birth...but at least he was healthy...and pushing was only 45 min.

What were your pospartum weeks like? great no post partum blues with Ewan at all, despite the horrible stuggle with breastfeeding...but I was able to conquer that and I was on cloud nine...though tired and my tailbone was sore.
