Due to death, etc, I feel I must be pregnant. I am in a state.

I posted earlier saying my DH and I had sex and our condom broke. (this was Friday) I was ovulating at the time so got all nervous and weird feeling.

Then my very very loved Grandma died Monday. I am obviously very sad about that.

We said if I was indeed pregnant from Friday I would name the baby after her (if it was a girl)

Last night we had sex again, this time using a new box of condoms. It broke again! No shit.

I now feel I am meant to br pregnant. We obviously werent trying, hence the condoms. But I have had death, and two possibilities of life in one week... and I feel really strange. I feel like if I am not pregnant at the end of the month I will have to really mourn. I feel if I am pregnant with a little girl, even, then my Grandma had something to do with it.

What are the odds of 2 condoms from 2 different packs breaking in one week, the week after you say "no more trying" and the week your Grandma dies. I just feel so weird.

Kismet, fate, destiny. Very spooky, in a good way. Were you trying for baby previously?

thanks for replying.

we were trying for a baby up until last month. We already have a 2 year old and in the end I decided I wasnt up to having a two year old and a new born so we stopped trying. It was just last week that I said "No more babies" like I said then condom broke, Grandma died, and another condom broke.

That happened to me...the week after my Grandad died I found I was pregnant with number 4. We weren't having any more either, we were using condoms and I was fully breastfeeding number 3. I ended up with a 9.5 month gap between no 3 and no 4 because no 4 was early, but i wouldn't have it any other way. I firmly believe my Grandad sent him.

I have a 4 1/2 year age gap, and in some ways I wish we had them closer together to get all the crappy bits out of the way in one go, so maybe the age gap could be a good thing in the long run. Nothing worse than packing away all the mess and baby stuff just to have to go back there again!
I think it would be a lovely thing if you were to become pregnant, maybe it would give you some comfort believing it was what your Grandma who was making it possible!
But I can see how devastating it could be if you really believed this but did not become pregnant. Maybe you should take this as a sign to keep trying

I got pregnant the week my DH's grandma died and had a baby girl. We think we may have conceived the night after hearing the news, know that may sound inappropriate but he was going away for the funeral and I couldnt make it.

I do just feel now... that if I am not pregnant it would be a disaster... but equally I dont want to start trying again. I only want a baby... if it is concieved in these circumstances otherwise I think it would still be best to wait.
