First pregnancy despite 9 months of puking was fairly normal although I was seriously anemic after delivery. I think the doctor didn't tell me everything because I lost a LOT of blood during delivery and know the placenta was very close to the cervix. They said it moved but who knows. The second was complete previa which resulted in MASSIVE hemhorraging at 34 weeks. I am thankful that I have 2 beautiful girls though.

to be alive. I'm happy you have two girls! I feel bad for those who don't get the chance to have children. My neighbor couldn't have children....she tried for a long time and then adopted. She has two adopted girls and then she WAS able to consieve....she now has another daughter and a son. So she has 4 kids now!
I do believe things happpen for a reason and some people are ment to adopt!

Yesterday I was crying most of the day as I looked back over the last year. Last Oct. we thought we would never have another baby. It was heartbreaking at the time. It was hard to get my period and have all these uncontrollable emotions and frustrations. It's amazing how different it is when you finally do get pregnant. Then you tend to worry if you can carry the baby to term. This has been my most stressful pregnancy with twice facing the possibility of a miscarriage. But here I am awaiting the arrival of our 3rd daughter. Remember time flies and sometimes I'm sad that she will be here because I just know she is getting bigger and bigger and she won't be little forever. It's hard to watch our girls grow. These thoughts make it a little bitter sweet that this one will most likely be our last.
I also wanted to tell you to enjoy trying. At times I'm glad it took us 7 months because we haven't been able to for 20 weeks  and then you know it takes a while after having a baby (not looking forward to that )
Last year there were 3 of us trying on the board, that I know of. Lana had her baby in May, I'm due TODAY! and Kerrie is due in April. It was nice to share parts of our pregnancies together.
I'm looking forward to announcement and hearing about your healthy pregnancies and babies.
Jules and Michele,
It took my sister 3 months for her cycle to return to normal and then she got pregnant. They weren't trying either time but I just wanted to let you know in case you get frustrated. Our dr. actually told my sister to wait 3 months before trying again.

Ashley was 2 weeks old when we adopted her and our son Christian was 3 years old. I am so thankful that I got to experience Ashley as an infant...I never thought that she would be my only "baby". Ashley was the best baby...the only time she cried was when she was hungry or had a boo-boo.
I would love to adopt another baby girl but hubby isn't cooperating...pooh on him!

Sorry Heather! I know how much you want this. Did your Doc ever call you?? I have thyroid issues and from what I know about thyroid and pregnancy is if you thyroid isn't working then it can make it really hard to get PG. I developed thyroid after my last pregnancy so I'm hoping I wont have issues because of my thyroid.
I know you were having yours tested. My hair is also falling out. I do think its still because of my thyroid. Good luck, I hope your Doc. called you back. Maybe it is your thyroid and you can get on some pills to regulate it....then you'll get PG!!! I hope you get some answers soon!
Take care!

DH made me promise no babies if we do the adoption thing.. he watched his sis and bro in law have babies (IVF) at our ages and older and he thinks they're crazy and his brother in law is having trouble keeping up witht he 5 year old.. and the baby is only 1... so I can't blame him..the odder thing is his brother (oldest) is a grampa and he and Cathy keep their granddaughter sometimes wile her parents are working and they seem more capable of keeping up, of course they get sleep at night most of the time!
I think we've decided on a 3-8 year old this time... probably 3-5, but might go up to 8 depending on the childs profile and circumstances... I like the idea of taking a child who wouldn't otherwise get a home.. Like Cassi was at 13. And because of that experience and also my sis in law being a child and developmental psych prof, and my cousin who I am close to being a child psych worker in NYC, I have the resources to use if I need help too!
