I'm still sitting here in shock right now, having gotten my BFP yesterday afternoon. I really thought I was out for the month so I was incredibly surprised! I couldn't sleep at all last night so I figured now was a good time to do an introduction.
A little about me.....
My husband and I have been together for almost 10 years and married for 7. I am 33 and he is 35. We have one fur baby who is a Persian kitty, she is our spoiled princess. We are American expats who have now lived in Angola for 4 years, originally thinking we would only be here for 2-3 years. My husband is in the oil business and this country is an oil rich place, with every big oil company operating from here. It will come as no surprise that we moved here from Houston. I do not work anymore, I gave up my job to come here.
We started TTGP in June 2014 and yesterday was the first time I had a BFP. We had perfect timing almost every month (I was temping) for the last 10 months so we were really to the point that we thought we were going to need help. I had started to research places for testing in South Africa and was even contacting my insurance company to find out what coverage I might have overseas. I have now looked at my positive pee sticks more than a dozen times because I still can't believe it finally happened. I'm super nervous and excited!
I joined The Bump in Sept 2014 and transitioned over here when it fell apart. I'm mostly active on the GKU board but also post on International and Healthy Living. Being an expat can be lonely so I really enjoy having this site to connect with people and I look forward to building relationships with those of you joining this board.
I'm so happy to be having a December15 baby!!
Due Date: December 4th
