a Christmas miracle

//originally written on 25.12.13

it's Christmas morning and we had a miracle.

we didn't think it would happen so soon. not 7 weeks after our previous lost. i had an inkling at the end of last week but i was too afraid to be sure. i've been thinking about doing the test since the weekend but i thought i'd wait till Christmas morning for that extra luck. 

and then we saw two lines....two lines! it is still early days and we have both learnt out lesson so we decided to not think about it too much and be too excited incase it is short lived like the last time we were pregnant. for once, i have no idea the due date for this baby. i know when i lost my last but falling pregnant again so soon after a miscarriage, i don't know how far along i am now so trying to estimate the due date is even harder. 

our GP is close till the first week of the new year so we probably won't know for sure for at least another 10 days. i wouldn't know whether my first blood test would show a higher BhCg than the last but if everything goes well, i'd be able to see my OB in two to three weeks and if i'm lucky, i might even get a dating scan. 

i'm taking things really easy this time around. not over exerting myself and trying my best to reduce the chances of having another miscarriage. i'm keeping all my fingers and toes crossed.
