Is my math right??

So usually 1+1 = 2. However, last week I found out that it's 3!!

Yep! We're pregnant!! We get to hear the heart beat for the first time on March 28th, and will know the real due date. My doctor puts the due date on Nov. 4 based on the first day of my last period.

There's more craziness to this... we had been on Clomid, a drug to induce ovulation, during the months of Nov, Dec and Jan. During those 3 months I was taking two types of hormones and using an ovulation predictor kit to know my most fertile days. Nothing really happened during those three months and every time the new month would come, I would find out I was not pregnant. It's been quite the emotional roller coaster. So we took a break during February to give my emotions a break. I decided to do nothing to increase the chances of us getting pregnant. This is why I was shocked when the EPT was positive. Thankfully, it was also the beginning of Spring Break, so I was able to get a doctor's appointment without any interruption to work.

Now to make so many decisions we had put off because we WEREN'T pregnant! Furniture and decorations for a nursery are now number one on the list!!
