On this day 3 years ago - Real Mum story on MoM

8 Comments

On 21 February, 3 years ago, we discovered we were having baby #2. It was my birthday and I had a bad dizzy spell after getting out of bed to go to the bathroom. Low iron levels, again, I thought. Fantastic. What a way to spend my birthday … waiting in the doctor’s surgery and having blood tests. I had done a pregnancy test the day before, just hoping, but it had come back negative. When we got in to see the doctor, she asked if there was any chance I was pregnant – and sent me off to the toilets with a little cup. She did another pregnancy test and it came back with a very clear positive. My best birthday present ever!

To all the mums who are trying for a bub, wishing you all the best. x

When I read about the severe dizziness without looking at the title I suspected low blood pressure or that you had you head a bit too far forward before you tried to stand up as I have a similar problem when I get out of a mini-bus. I am tall and have to “duck my head” so that I don’t hit it in the doorway.
I am glad you received good news

This is such a great site, MoMs is so helpful. I’ve just read a story about a mum who has had 10 rounds of unsuccessful IVF and gas just been told to try donor eggs. And here you are with your happy ending telling other mums to never give up hope. Good for you!
