Baby Fever!

My husband and I have had baby fever for over a year now. I had it first and I remember the exact moment it struck, I was watching a documentary called "The Business of Being Born" (if you haven't seen it you HAVE to, it's amazing!) I left fingerprints in my husbands hand as I squeezed in time with the women's contractions. It was the most amazing thing to witness, women having home births, no drugs, just letting nature take its course. After that I convinced my husband to let me buy the book "What to expect when you're expecting". I read it cover to cover in two days.

For those of you who don't know what baby fever is, let me explain. Baby fever is an overwhelming feeling of wanting a baby. We are the couple that EVERY single baby that goes by we say "AWWW". That toddler on the corner throwing a tantrum? "AWWW".
I can't tell you why exactly that happens but it's crazy reminder that we are human and are designed to carry on the human race.

So as it happens this is our second month of trying to concieve a baby, still no luck, every week I get excited when I feel the least bit nauseous or "funny" and my husband runs out to the pharmacy and buys a pregnancy test and we both wait all nervous and excited until "not pregnant" glows brightly and that "funny" feeling I had ten minutes before dissapears as quickly as it came.

I am hoping to maintain the happiness that babies and pregnancy are bringing me right now throughout my entire pregnancy and in to raising my little bundle of joy! Hopefully my next pregnancy test will bring good news!
