I have news!!

Well you may have wondered why I haven't been posting lately..I haven't felt well. In fact I have been so sick that I can hardly function these days. I'm tired, sick, and just plain old grumpy. I have googled every intestinal illness alive. I have researched every cancer you could dream of. I made an appt. with my primary doctor. NOTHING. So I finally gave in and bought a test. YEP, I said it, a test. Not a math test, or a blood test. Not an I.Q. test but a good ole' positive+, negative- test. You know, the ones where you P.O.A.S..that stands for "pee on a stick" in the fertility world. Yes once upon a time I was considered infertile. Not anymore! After two pregnancy tests and two positives I have finally been diagnosed with my illness: I'm PREGNANT AGAIN!
So after weeks of living in denial and wondering how in the heck I will manage a 7 year old, 1 year old, and an infant, I am starting to become at peace with it all. I have realized that my life will be on hold for a good 3-4 years and leaving the house will be non existent except when I have to drive Jenna to school. I will no longer pack up and "run" to Target. I will no longer be able to "slip out" to the grocery store while Kane is sleeping and Marc is watching the kids. I will become a prisoner in my own home, at least for a few years!
So I guess overall the rule of thumb is: You are fertile after you have a baby!! Even if you were infertile before hand!
SO yes Aunt Karyn if you are reading this, you are going to be an Aunt again!
I was able to go for my dr.'s today and I am scheduled for my first ultrasound tomorrow to see our precious little bean! Everyone says things are meant to be and I agree. Kane will have a close sibiling and Jenna will be left alone to mature into a beautiful young girl without her "nagging" little brother!! I will update more tomorrow..after being exhausted from Jenna's first day of 2nd grade! I guess these years will fly. Now that I am writing this I realize that my once little, difficult, crying infant is now a big second grader..so time flies!
