Pregnant without trying?
Hubby isn't officially allowing us to ttc just yet, but we have had just one "accident". Please post your stories of happy accidents/ first attempt pregnancies to give me a glimmer of hope! (and an interesting read).
Good luck all with your bumps, however big or small.

good luck to all you mummies and mummies to be out there. take care.xxx
Should have been clearer - by "accident" I meant we've had sex without protection once, unintentionally. I calculate that I wasn't unlikely to be ovulating, but even so I know from reading about all the ladies on here that in most cases it takes a lot more effort than a one-off! Just wondered how many people out there had hit the target first time, or without trying to.
Thanks for sharing your stories!
We decided that we would just get on with things and altho not planned baby would be loved and wanted just the same. Sadly I had MC at 12 wks and it was the most horrific, heart renching thing I have ever gone thru. That was March 2006.
Accidents do happen and can happen even if just a one off.
We decided at Xmas 2006 we really did want another child and that we would ttc for 4 or 5 months and if nothing we would resign ourself to just having 2. Well I got BFP in Feb and now only have 12 days to go!
I do believe that everything happens for a reason....
Nice to see you've bought your avatar with you from YAYW, yours by far was my fave there!!!!!
My hubby and I had been together for only 8 months when while travelling I got a sickeness bug, for some reason unknown to me I completely forgot to take 7 days precautions...I was on the pill...
However for the next 7 days 5 of them where in a youth hostel sharing a room with 8 other people so obviuosly nothing happened then, so there where only 2 days we got down and dirty and then only once each of those two days, 3 weeks later I didn't get my A/F but as I have PCOS, another week passed and I had really sore boobs and cramps I did a test to be sure (as I couldn't belivie I could be, I had been told I couldn't concieve naturally!!!) Also the 2 days it happened was only days 9 and 10 of my cycle!!!!
I wish a camera could have filmed me as I looked at the test...I couldn't belive it at first, I thought I mis-read it...I screamed for Mark and spent the next few hours hysterical saying my life was over (I was 27, hardly a teen mum) and Mark and I literally couldn't speak to each other for 2 days...
Anyway nearly 6 years later we are married and I am currently 11 weeks with our 2ud child!!!
So our LO who is now 4 was concieved on either the 29th or 30th December 2002 in the ANA hotel in Sydney Australia...
PMSL while I was writing this my LO wandered in and sat on the bed with me, she spotted your avatar and started killing herself laughing, she then started copying it, puttting her hands up by her face and poking her tongue, soooooooooo cute...

I found out I was pregnant purely by accident. I went to the docs with severe stomach cramps and was given pain killers. A week later I was still in agony so went to a walk in centre who sent me to A&E a couple of hours later I was told I was pregnant, this was the last thing on my mind ! I'm now 38 weeks!

I had a suprise pregnancy!! I came off the pill in Dec 05, thinking that it would take about 2 years to get pregnant as I had been on it for 13 years. I never had a period, but one night in Oct 2006 I kept waking myself up turning onto my front because my tummy had gone rock hard. I went to morrisons the next day and baught a pregnancy test out of curiosity, did the test in the toilets and shoved it straight in my bag. Got to work and checked it, two blue lines!!! called my partner who was driving at the time and blurted it out. we hardly spoke that night - both in shock.
Called the docs but couldnt get an appointment till 7 days later. That weekend, i had strange sensations in my tummy and was worried that i was miscarrying but it fortunately passed. had my docs appointment and he had a good feel and then very calmly told me that i was 22 - 24 weeks pregnant!!!! I nearly fell off the bed and couldnt stop shaking!! The strange feelings that I had had was the baby moving.
I had been on 3 holidays that summer, boozing! I wasnt sick once, my boobs had stayed the same size, and although i had put on 5lb in weight I put it down to eating out and boozing on my holidays! I literally became pregnant at the first opportunity and had what seemed like a very short pregnancy, so was very lucky really! Jo xx
I sound like a silly teenager here, well I am (we're 19 and 21). So definitely NOT planned, but I'm delirious about it now!
13 weeks tomorrow! xxx
i didnt have any cravings until later on but had gone off fizzy drinks, wine, fruit and sex!! funnily enough i also developed a craving for cream cakes at about 30 weeks. also craved ice, chocolate, and cement picked off from the inside of my open fire. crazy!! xx
i wasnt late with period i was feeling sick and bloated so went out and baught a test 3days before my period was dew, i put the test on my sink and went back to it after 5mins and had to do a double look as i was expecting to see one line and to my shock there was 2.i just got the test to rule it out lol. it took a while to sink in but me and my boyfriend cant wate now and there is going to be a nice age gap between my daughter and baby 4yrs bar 2mths. x

Bless your wee one, purplebabes. I've been following your no. 2 (baby, not poo!!) story on YYW closely (I sound like a right weirdo, am not, honest....) - and was practically crying when I read your "there is a heartbeat!!" thread. Hope all's still well. xx
my oh and I met at 17 (me) 21 (him) and since I get migranes and have DVT in family we used the cap..all fine till one morning we shagged then I went downstairs in a rush as late for work and went to the shower room. While in shower I took out cap (not supposed to do for 5 hours after sex) thought nothing of it..... 2 weeks later a shocking BFP!!!!!!!!! I was only 21 at the time. All fine and had daugher. Got married in Sept year and half after daughter born then got drunk at Xmas party, came home, no condoms, thought....ahhh sod it!!!!!! 2 weeks later another BFP!!!! OH got testicular cancer (long and painful story) and after 2 years of treatment and ops he got all clear but due ton intensve chemeo no more kids. TEN years later I was feeling very ill and hey guess what BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!! B4 this one was even one I feel ill again...BFP!!!!!!!!!!!! now on number 5!!!!!!!!!!! I have one girl and 3 boys so no prizes for guessing what I want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Accidents do and will happen. We had discussed number 2 and number 4 but just were not TTC>>> this one no 5 is first TTC conception!!!! and it took 5 months to get the BFP
so just dont plan and go for it!!!!!!!!!!!
