9Months Post-Op and Pregnant!

I just turned 9 months post-op and have lost a total of 112lbs...love it. :) My husband and I always wanted a family (im 22 hes 25) but we knew we would have problem. we have not been protecting ourselves before surgery and in 5 years nothing happened. I had the surgery Oct 9th 2013. starting getting a period every month since December but still ranges from 32-41 days. I want to be a mom so bad...ive had scares since surgery but I was crampy and all that but then starting yesterday I was beginning nausea and I still get mild cramps. I went to work was sent home due to me not feeling good. but told me to take a test(which I thought I wasn't and there's no way) so I went grabbed a test to just shush everyone up lol. So I got home took the 1st test and immediately and it came back a clear POSITIVE under 45 secs! I was shocked took the second one and again POSITIVE!!!! I go this morning for a blood test..i couldn't be happier. Im scared that the blood test is going to come back wrong...but they say u cant really get FALSE POSITIVES, especially on 2 tests! and being how clear it was!!! So is it safe to say IM PREGNANT?!?!?!?!?!? :)

How exciting!!!!!

Your story makes me so excited! My husband and I have tried for years unsuccessfully too and this was the reason I had surgery. I'm a month behind you and your post gives me so much hope! My periods have been consistent the past 4 months and before surgery, they were either non-existent or went on forever and ever. Looking forward to following your story so make sure to keep us updated. :)

Praise The Lord! You totally deserve this! How did you lose 112lbs in 9 months!?!? Impressive!!
