    Hi! I'm new here and just found out I'm pregnant again w/#3

    Hi I'm 23 and a SAHM of a three year little boy and a one year old little girl. My husband travels about 4 days a week and I just found out a week ago that we are pregnant again. Totally unplanned. Just not sure if I am ready to do this all over again. Just wanted to see who else was in a similar situation so I know that I am not the only person who is so not ready for another baby right now.

    oh hun you are not alone I am 31 years old have a 15 year old 13 year old and a 3 year old, I did not want to have more after the 3 year old she was my girl that I wanted BUT here I am 33 weeks pregnant and due with another boy. When I found out I was pregnant again I called my husband on the phone and told him I was in tears, all he told me was if thats what God wants then He will give it to us. I was still pissed but I have had time and I LOVE this little man in my tummy and cant wait to see him and you will also love that baby in your belly just give it time. Good Luck

    I am looking forward to the day when I can have that attitude. Everyone who knows that i am pregnant is so excited I'm just not quite there yet. Thanks fo rthe encouragement! Its one thing for someone who isn't in the situation to tell you its ok its whole different feeling when someone who has been going through it tells you it will be alright. Thanks

    well it is sooo good to know that i am not alone on this mysterious event lol!!!!!!! obviously not mysterious :) well i was one day late this month and im never late so last night i told my husband that i was going to buy a pregnancy test, so i did, and we joked with eachother, he said i hope you pass the test and i said no im going to fail, and my son bless his heart say's "mommy your going to pass the test" having no idea what we were taking about i just said ok thanks sweetie!!!!!! so i take the test expecting it to be negative but i really wanted the confirmation of a negative test, but to my surprise it said positive and me and my husband flipped out in shock like how did this happen we were so careful, i mean condoms, the pull-out method where did we go wrong??? right??? well we went wrong when one particular week we couldnt keep our hands off eachother lol!!!!! so here i am possibly 3-4 weeks pregnant with kid #3 in college studying to be a middle school/high school teacher and now i have to fit pregnancy into this comming quater. funny thing is me and my husband both quit our dead end jobs a year ago to go to college figuring our son was six and in school and our daughter was two but was with grandma, so we felt this would be the perfect time to go to school, i mean we just got finish potty training our daughter, we call her the potty queen, well i guess it's back to morning sickness and weight gain. im still working on the weight from before lol!!!!!!!!! how on earth can i study in school and be pregnant at the same time???????????

    Re: Hi! I'm new here and just found out I'm pregnant again w/#3

    I am 21 (22 in December) and due with #3 on Dec. 12. I have had my babies close, so I have a 30 month old, a 15 month old, and my second and this one will be about 19 months apart. I am also a SAHM and love my time with my girls. My sister recently had her third, but she's 8 years older than I am, and hers are all about 2 years apart give or take a month. I'm concerned about being able to care for two toddlers and a newborn, but I know it will all come together and we'll get the hang of it. I am 24 weeks and absolutely love the little guy in my tummy. My husband and I (I think myself, more than him) really wanted a little boy, and now he's on his way :) Just give it some time. My sister said the thing that helped her best was having her older two on a good schedule, so that's what I'm trying to make sure we get/keep over the next few weeks- a solid schedule that I can try to fit the baby into. Best wishes for your pregnancy.

    I am a WAHM(workat home mom).  I have a 2 year old, a 5 month old, and am 6 weeks pregnant.  We weren't planning on a third any time soon, but here we are.  I don't feel ready for it either it made me cry.

    I have a three year old and thought that we were done. Obviously not since I am now 34 weeks pregnant. I wasn't exactly thrilled when I found out but I am coming around :)

    It is so nice to know that I'm not alone in this either! DH and I have 7 1/2 yo twin boys and a daughter who is 16 months. We used fertitlity for all of our children and our daughter was by insemination! I have PCOS so the fact that we got pg on our own without even trying is truly a miracle. So why did I flip out and say I didn't want this baby when I saw the positive pg test? Things are getting better (I'm only 6 weeks along) but I feel insanely guilty for not really wanting this baby at first. Thanks for making me not feel so alone in this!
