Our Little Secret

ByLouise
Last Thursday was a sad day for us. We found out that the hubster needed spinal surgery and would be going to hospital in 6 weeks to have it.
But, we also found out some good news. Some news that I wasn’t going to talk about just yet. Some news that has made us all so happy.
I am pregnant!!! 
A close-up of a pregnancy test strip on a wooden surface shows two pink lines in the result window—our little secret, indicating a positive result.
Yes, we are all so happy that we are having our third child and cannot wait to start organising the spare room and buying baby things.
I was going to keep it a secret until after the first scan, just because of the miscarriage I had last year and the risk of it happening again. But after speaking to my GP, who told me that I had most likely miscarried due to the depo provera contraceptive injection still being in my body causing myself to reject the baby. 
Plus, after speaking with my husband, we agreed that if it was to happen again, we would want people to know. Why should we have to hide in silence whilst grieving. I think pregnancy and loss should be talked about and understood more. 
So, that was our decision, to announce to everyone our happy news… And now on to eating all the sweet treats out of the cupboard since I seem to feel hungry all the time since finding out!

  5. Many, many congratulations. And how refreshing to hear somebody willing to talk about miscarriages. I suffered 5 but also managed 2 lovely babies, 1 of each sex. Have I forgotten my lost children? No.
