I have two beautiful boys, a 3-year-old and a 9-month-old. DH and I really wanted a girl, so decided to look into adoption to "guarantee" that. However, I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant. Obviously, this was unplanned!
I had just weaned DS2 and only had one period after that, so I have no idea what my post-weaning cycle looked like or when I ovulated. I thought we were in the safe zone, so when we were celebrating our five-year anniversary, we were not as careful as we should have been. It looks like I might have ovulated later than expected. Here are some key factors:
CD 18: BD (Also ate a steak)
CD 20: BD X 3 (You saw that right. What can I say, we were excited to be on a romantic getaway!)
CD 21: BD
CD 22: Ovulation pains
Diet: Was not monitoring at all!
Lube: Used ID Glide
CM: Was not monitoring, but don't remember seeing EWCM
Age: I am 37 and DH is 32. Also, FWIW, I have three sisters and DH has one sister.
I should add that this was VERY different from the times the boys were conceived. With them, I went to acupuncture; BD'ed multiple times before, during, and after O; took guafenisen; and used Pre-Seed. It took me 3-4 months to get pregnant both times.
Any guesses as to what the baby's sex will be? In the meantime, I am trying to mentally and emotionally prepare for being a mom to THREE boys!
