:rofl This is like the anti-Sasha announcement!
(For those who weren't around when I got pregnant with Sasha, it was a HUGE announcement after 4.5 years of TTC and there was much partying).
Thanks girlies. :D I found out on Friday. It was a total shock as we weren't trying (though not really doing anything to stop it) and my PCOS had flared right back up big time. I wasn't expecting conception to happen without metformin. But on a whim, after finding nursing painful, I decided to test, not expecting anything. And two lines appeared!
I'm not exactly sure how far I am along. ANything from 4-8 weeks. So I'm waiting to hear back for an early pregnancy scan. I'm starting my first heparin injection tomorrow and then just relaxing until the appointments start coming up, probably after Christmas.
Sasha has been enjoying the excitement and is telling me that there is a baby boy in my tummy! SO we'll see. ;)

A huge congrats and I am sooooooooo gritting my teeth for you with those injections!
OHOHOHOHOHOHOH YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm soooo stoked for you. When I saw the title of the thread I yelled YAY real loud. My hubby looked at me rather strangly. Congrats from all of us in our family.
I'll be honest, with PCOS I never expected a "surprise" pregnancy but this one was one.

Congratulations Erika!!! I know so many people who got PG when they were about to try but not preventing. Maybe it helps not have all that trying pressure.
Regardless - super big congrats!

Thanks again girlies :) I am still processing it all. it is all just so wierd to go from infertility to a surprise pregnancy. But I'm really starting to enjoy it.
Took my first heparin injection this morning and it stung but wasn't the worst. And am booking in with the maternity hospital. I even went to a LLL meeting today with 2 friends. LOL So odd but nice to think that I'll have a tiny little newborn in a few months!
Your announcement totally brought tears to my eyes, AGAIN, like your announcement with Sasha.
Yeah that!!!
Hugest of huge congratulations!!!

What she said!
What a lovely surprise, so happy for you my dear.
Wonderful that you didn't have to go down that tired, old TTC route again.
Gentle belly rubs - I can't believe Sasha is going to be a big sister!
:squeeze
A very belated congrats! I'm so excited for you. :D
