4th baby!!!!

So we had a bit of a "scare" last week when my monthly friend didn't come on Sunday. Or Monday. Or Tuesday. Or Wednesday, are you catching my drift. Nothing Thursday...5 days late...FIVE! We were not trying and honestly I don't remember even doing "it" I know TMI! I am on the pill. The same pill I've always been on.


I've never been late unless I was pregnant. Friday morning there were signs of a cycle. By Friday afternoon those too were gone. So Friday night I broke down and took a test. Negative.


I had mixed emotions about the Negative. After 5 days of being late Jason and I had discussed how we would make it work. What we would do to get by, who would sleep where. Things of that nature. So part of me was sad when the missed period didn't turn into a pregnancy/baby. Admittedly I was flipping out nervous and he was calm cool and collected over the five days. Thank goodness! I was actually more nervous about telling my work than anything that was really pregnancy or baby related. I got mixed reviews when I announced I was pregnant with Lucy. There are days my work does not function without me, so I fear being on maternity leave and having to come back and fix things! LOL


On top of being a bit sad, I was relieved. I would not have to go into work an announce...I'm pregnant AGAIN. I didn't have to worry about switching rooms, making the basement the master suite, affording things, adjusting my work schedule, taking maternity leave, checking sick and vacation balances...etc. I was relieved for that.


Ever since our "scare" we've talked and talked and talked about adding just one more. All of our talks have led us to wait until the beginning of 2012 and see where we are financially, we'll have our foundation fixed, new roofs on the house and shop and we'll have a better idea of what we want to do by then...hopefully!
