Ever Had This Feeling?

I haven’t talked about this in a while. The whole baby fever thing. It’s been a topic of discussion with Matt and I for a quite a while now. I mean we’ve only been married about 10 months and we’ve been talking about it since like ohhh maybe after being married 3-4 months. I guess it’s just because we’ve been together for so long. I mean I’m still kinda young, but I’ve wanted to be a younger mother. I’ll be 20 before there’s ever a chance of a baby being born. Matt will be or almost be 27. I’m saying will almost be because I just have this feeling. It could be all in my head, and maybe just me hoping, but I just have this feeling that I am pregnant. I don’t know it’s just weird. I feel really different. I can’t even explain it. I’m probably just hoping too much. There was a time back a while ago that I got all screwed up on my BC skipped 1-2 days. I don’t know..I mean I know it takes a while for it to get out of your system or whatever. I just really really want to baby, I just don’t know if now would be a good time…I don’t know if there really is a good time. I mean Matt and I both really really want kids…soon…but we both agree that we just don’t know if it’s the right time. The only thing stopping us is financial issues. I mean right now we have plenty of money…we pay the bills and live comfortably with extras. BUT…I’d soon want to quit my job…or at least get something that doesn’t require lifting and what not. After the baby is born I doubt I’d work at all. I’ve always wanted to just kinda have my own little daycare and maybe just watch a few kids. My mom’s going to be needing one soon, so that would help her out. Matt might be getting a raise too. He’ll know by tomorrow I think…maybe it’s next week. THen we’d really be okay. I think Matt’s problem might be he’ll get a bunch of crap from his family. Mainly his step mom which she has no room to be talking…I don’t mean to offend anyone by this because I absolutely adore and admire any mothers…but Matt’s (step) sister has 3 kids she’s like 23 and never been married. They actually MADE her get her tubes tied or she’d get no support. I mean they are the most adorable kids and she does a damn good job. I’m just saying that Matt’s step mom would have no right in giving us crap about it. That’s kinda why we’re just hoping for it to happen…I’d think my parents would be totally excited. I might get a little crap from my mom because she’s said over and over agian she doesn’t want to be a grandma before she’s 40…well if I were pregnant right now I’d be due about a month after her 40th birthday lol. Speaking of which she’s about 9.5 weeks along! :o) She goes to the dr on the 11th and if everything’s fine then she should be okay. Yes she’s 39 and pregnant….I love it!
I dunno…
Are there any other mothers or soon-to-be mothers out there that just had this feeling they were pregnant before they knew? I’m probably just hoping lol.

Truthfully yes. I knew I was PG before I even took the test. My period had become somewhat regular and then I was late…I knew I had to be….and then when we took the test I was. Its a weird feeling. But it did happen to me.

Yep. When you know, you know. And I was on birth control when it happened to me and I still knew. Mostly becuase I was getting moody and stuff, but it was definitely feeling different than normal. Take a test and find out for sure. Good luck!

Hey Chel, I just thought I would wish you the best of luck and tell u that I still luv ur guts. I wish we were better friends. Does your mom know if she is having a boy or a girl? luv krys

my mom was 40 when she had me,a nd 41 when she had my yougner brother! the funny thing is, she started at 26! 🙂

I knew both times that I was pregnant, but there were also a few times that I was convinced I was…but then wasn’t. So it’s all mental 🙂 I had my son when I was 22 and had been married for about a year, and I felt SO young. We dated for about 4 years before getting married so we just felt ready right away. He is the light of our lives, and we are expecting baby #2 now 🙂

I knew I was pregnant weeks before I could take the test, but I was in denial about what I was feeling….take a test as soon as you can to know for sure….good luck!

I had a ‘feeling’ I was pregnant. So I stopped drinking coffee and tea at work and exercised precautions ‘just in case’. I never had any pregnancy symptoms either…just a missed period…but I just had a feeling that I was. The night we found out, I went out to a bar w/ a friend so I only had 1 bottle of Mike’s Lemonade in case I was…and I was!

Yeah, I knew both times. I knew for quite a while before it would register on a test. Then, with Cheyanna I took two tests that said negative before one finally said positive at 7 weeks along! With this one I took a test that said negative also, but I still knew that I was pregnant. Well, good luck. :o)

yup, had that feel, too. but later when the test was negative, i was kinda disappointed. anyway, like u, i m hoping 2 become a young mother, too… tho’ i m much older than u r = ) anyway, all the best! & may ur heart’s desire come true.

how come I didn’t read this sooner. :o) LOL with breanna, I just *knew*. With this lil guy, I knew I was pregnant with him…but can we say denial LOL he’s our lil surprise :o) I wish you the best. My mom said there’s no need to rush. LOL but I say well, there is NEVER a *right* time to have a baby. except when YOU feel ready. good luck sweetie :o) Love Always ~*Krista*~
