      It really ticks me off when people assume your pregnancy wasn't planned.

            Yes! This!! Congratulations!! And FWIW - because we chose to have our daughter during MS1, most thought she wasn't planned. Hurumph. Nope, we were just ready. But, yay!!!!

                  It's true Adrianne. You might just give up and go home after a while.

                    Ummm ... I'm going to venture that Jenn isn't pregnant. I think she was commiserating with the rude "you know how to prevent that" comments. But if I'm wrong, congrats!

                        I should have quoted the her signature instead of her post, when I posted.

                                Thank you. I didn't announce the news anywhere else. We have been trying to for 2 years and finding out took us by surprise due to my age and health recently. That and the fact we have a child that won't be born in the same week in Sept. I thought if I put the news in my signature line the idea would seem more real.
