Hi VB and congratulations! I am really pressed for time...I'm chaperone for my daughter's field trip, but wanted to say that I'm happy for you, and that everything is going to be fine.

You are still in a state of shock I'm sure, but things will calm down, your hubby will be understanding (after his initial shock:P) and you guys are going to enjoy the idea of your growing family:)

Will post more later...take care mamma!

Hi VB,

I always believe that honesty is the best policy. But you do whatever you are comfortable with. Know tth we all are so happy for you!!! I hope hubby is happy with the news. Try not to project how he is going to react. But do be prepared if he is in shock in the beginning. It will sink in for him. Again, I am so happy forr you. Keep posting and let everybody know what happens.

Hugs, Karen

Okay, I'm back....

So I really think that this is a great age difference for your kids. I don't think that you would've wanted to wait too much longer for another one, because the gap would be getting pretty big.

At this point though, your daughter is at the perfect age to be a 'mommy's helper' and that will really bond the kids together!

As far as your husband's reaction...remind him it only takes once;p...I am sure that he will be thrilled once the idea sinks in.

I hope that you will feel well, calm and happy all throughout your pregnancy. Do keep us posted:)

Take care,
S.C.

First CONGRATULATIONS!!! Second I know how u feel I'm still shocked that I'm having my third child and I'm 32 weeks now...lol. I agree that you should be honest and tell your hubby asap to avoid any issues. If this I what the two of you wanted then he will be happy. Good luck and were here if you need us.

Yeah!!!! I am so glad that his reaction was positive...what a relief for you:) Yes do confirm with your dr., I mean four tests can't be wrong, but you will need to get started anyway on regularly scheduled appointments, vitamins, nutrition information, ect..

Take care, feel well, and keep us in the loop (we love baby news!)
