So after 11 years and absolutely no contraception whatsoever, we just found out last night that we are going to have a baby. We have 3 children already that are adopted and we thought that we wouldn't ever give birth and we were actually ok with that. Our three previous 'pregnancies' only lasted 9 weeks at the most. Now this next 9 months or so is going to feel like torture. More for Carrie than for me though. I think that she is excited to finally get to experience pregnancy and there isn't much that I can do for her. We had thought that we weren't going to tell the kids yet as they have no concept of time and we don't want to be deluged with constant questions about when the baby is coming. That didn't last though. We told them tonight at dinner and I think that they are going to be just fine with it. Hannah informed us that she wouldn't accept anything less than a girl. If it is a boy she would be out of here. We just decided to let her deal. She has 9 months to come to grips with a new sibling. She is going to be a big sister soon and that is going to be an adjustment. I am intending to use this forum to keep all the friends and family up-to-date on what is happening in Baby Ville.
