I think I have had an immaculate conception...

Just got a BFP. I took the test during my lunch break, it was more out of boredom than a real belief that I could be preggers.

Am totally stunned.

I have only had 1 AF since giving birth a year ago. That AF was eight weeks ago. I was not surprised when another did not follow 4 weeks later as I thought it would take a while for normal service to resume.

The thing is I have not had sex since the AF. Seriously. Therefore one of the following most be true:

  1. I was pregnant before last AF and it was not a real AF. But it was very, very heavy so this seems an unlikely option. It would also make me quite far along (10 weeks?) which is too scarey for words.

  2. This is an immacualte conception.

I am not at all sure what to beleive. Am sitting at my desk staring at the test. Have not called DP yet. Maybe I should call the Vatican instead.

ISAA said "I am a Londoner" which I don't think she'd do if she didn't actually live in London.

ISAA - Am so very pleased for you - you are through the worst bit (the scary bit) now and you can enjoy your short pregnancy!

Katie3677 · 02/08/2007 15:41

Just read through the whole of this thread and it made me cry with laughter, just what I needed. Particularly the bits about forgetting that you've had sex, so true, and such an ego-deflator for poor dh's!

lemonaid · 02/08/2007 14:46

I wonder if she's someone who goes to the City meetups? Anyone here go to those and know of someone with a one-year-old?

Peachy · 02/08/2007 11:16

Congratulations Peachy

Now ISAA who be thou? Congratulations! A wee miracle in your tum.

So you are in your late 20s, you're intelligent and you're off to France for 2 weeks today, and your MN name is no great shakes so we shouldn't get too excited? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm................ come on MN detectives... deduct and tell the rest of us who this is!

Wow, congratulations - now tell us who you are!

Congrats to Peachy too

Egg · 02/08/2007 09:15

Bugger, really want to know who it is. Nobody new has joined our Feb thread yet, except a lady expecting twins who is definitely not ISAA. Grrr.

FoghornLeghorn · 02/08/2007 09:13

Are you going to spill yet ?

Oh no .... is she is hols now ?

Peachy · 02/08/2007 09:01

FLAME it's yer bloody fault too, if you'd made it to the meet up.......

(OK we were trying for ages but was in the forest lol)

duchesse · 02/08/2007 08:55

Well, gleaned from the thread, we know: it's someone still bfeeding a 1 yr old, who is in her late 20s, is back at work, lives in a major city and has over 400 posts on MN. That should narrow it down, no?
