How did you moms to be find out you were pregnant and how far long were you? =) I'm just curious to see all the different experiences that us ladies go thru. Here's mine. I was on a BC pill and it was a kind that made it to where I didn't have periods. Well, my insurance quit and I was not about to pay $100 a month for my BC so I got kicked off the pill. A couple days after I was off the pill I was at work talking to a customer and out of no where I had the urge to throw up! I couldn't even finish talking to the lady! I asked my boss (who which was standing near me) to take over and booked it to the bathroom and threw up! When I got off work later that day I went to Walmart and bought 4 (2 per box) clearblue pregnancy tests. Went straight home and took one. It said negative (this was at about 8 in the afternoon) i woke up the next morning and used the first pee of the day and took another test. IT WAS POSITIVE =) I scheduled with an OB after I went and applied for insurance and here I am. 34+1 pregnant with a girl =) ftm. I had that positive test when I was only 8 days pregnant! I'm so happy!

I was always told I wouldn't be able to carry my own baby. So when my bf and I got together we barely used condoms. After 4 months of being together I was a few days late on my period. No big deal I was always irregular. My mom said she "knew" I was. I kept putting it off saying "no I can't get pregnant remember" 2 weeks after my missed period my mom bought me a test. I took one at midnight when everyone was asleep and it was POSITIVE I was shaking and ran to my room to wake my bf and asked if there was really two lines! That next morning I took another just to be sure and broke the news to my family that day! I was 9 weeks when I found out.

After I had my son in April 2013 via csection. I got on BC pills 8 weeks after having him. I won't lie I misseda day here and there aNFL my now fiance were still not using protection. I had one period after my son and when I was suppose to start again...I didn't. I had a feeling I was pregnant again. My son was only 3 1/2 no the old!! My fiance went and got a 2-pack of tests. I was to afraid to take it so I waited til he left for work the next morning. As soon as he walked out the door I took it and BAM it was a DARK positive. I called my fiance And told him I needed him home NOW lol. He came and looked at the stick and said YES were gonna have a girl now!! And sure enough were pregnant with a lil girl this time! She is due May 23rd exactly one month after her brothers first birthday!!

I was kicked off insurance and lost my birth control just like you did! I was waiting for my period but I was late and (tmi) my discharge changed texture, my boobs got sore, and I started spotting. After a few days of spotting and passing tissue I thought I was having a really early miscarriage, freaked out and took 7 positive tests and broke down thinking I was having a miscarriage. Saw a few doctors who confirmed the pregnancy but said I was losing it and a few days later I went to the hospital cramping and bleeding. I had an ultrasound and was actually fine, the embryo was perfect exactly where it should be. I was 5 weeks and one day. Here I am 16 weeks and 4 days. I was devastated thinking I was miscarrying and it was honestly really traumatizing. But im perfectly healthy and so is the baby and I just found out its a girl!

My first pregnancy was planned. We started trying a couple of weeks before our wedding (ovulating) and took a test and it ended up being negative. I had my period on our wedding day. We tried again and 2 weeks later moved into our own house. I had no hope and was tired of trying already. My husband bought tests and made me take one one morning before he left for work. It came up positive and I couldn't believe it and was in denial until I took like 5 tests lol.

This time around we weren't trying and I was on a low birth control (pill) due to breastfeeding. We moved again in September and when I would rock my daughter to sleep I just felt pregnant and had a feeling. I dismissed the feeling because I had my period that month. I thought I was getting a stomach bug because I kept feeling nauseas after I ate but didn't associate it. I then missed my period bit no big deal since 14 months after having my daughtee I only had 3 periods with months inbetween. I still had a feeling deep down so mu husband got me some tests. I took one at night and there was a barely visible second line so I was in denial again. I took a test the next morning and BAM there was a big dark second line. Here I am 21w2d with another girl.

Me n my bf had been having unprotected sex for 2 years...I was never on bc or anything so I started thinking what if I could never have kids or is he shooting blanks!? So I never thought of being pregnant...till I always felt tired n was eating a lot more...my bf thought I was just getting lazy cause at the same time I had gotten laid off from a dentist office lol couple days passed n I started throwing up little by little...n I kept having dreams about babies!! Few days pass n I have a orthodontics appointment after I left that I stopped by a teen/woman's center n took a test n walked out knowing I was 8 weeks pregnant...so now I'm here 26 years old with my first baby n about to be 34 weeks tomorrow with a baby boy
