So it seems breastfeeding and needing IVF previously means nothing..

Very shaky right now, need a hand hold please!

DS is 16 months, took 3.5 years to make with the help of ICSI for male factor infertility. He is breastfed and a boob monster, feeding day and night still. I haven't had a period for over two years now, not even a sniff of one bar a bit of cramping for the past few weeks. DH and I dont often find the time to have sex but here I am, having taken a pregnancy test because I've been feeling a bit strange ( struggling to sleep, bloated ). I bought a two pack of cheap ones from sainburys and have obviously done both and and say the same.

Never in a million years after being told we would never conceive naturally did I expect this - I don't think I believe it. We'd discussed doing a Frozen Embryo Transfer at the end of the year after DS turned two.

I've peed on enough of these things in the last few years but still I'm doubting it's real and will be getting a fancier test this morning.

Yikes.

Congratulations! It’s actually a really nice age gap. My two are 23 months apart, and whilst the early days were very tiring, they are close enough in age to share interests and are thick as thieves.

That's excellent. All you needed was one good strong sperm!

Aah, congrats - it only takes one sperm to do it. 🙂
Mother Nature is amazing.
