[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can any pregnancy be a surprise ? Unless there is a hysterectomy or vasectomy, you will and can get pregnant if you have sex.

when you have been infertile like this couple and so many others, it does come as a surprise that you got pregnant without help.  I mean, sure, anytime you have sex without protection (and even sometimes with), pregnancy is a possibility.  But the chances are slim to none in your mind when you have gone through years of not getting pregnant no matter what you try.

I call ours a happy surprise since we had been trying for YEARS and were planning to go back for more treatments when we got pregnant on our own.  I thought my body was playing tricks on me when my period didn't show up.  I quite literally shook the test when it only said "Pregnant" - I truly thought the "Not" was malfunctioning.  I was in shock that it had happened after all that time.  Sure, anytime we had sex, it was possible, but we'd been having sex to no avail for years and it starts to feel like "no way is it going to happen, so why worry that it will?"[/quote]

YES - and for those who haven't invested small fortunes/half a lifetime into treatment,  I suppose this would be hard to understand.

And, a happy surprise when you are both older 42 & 51...it comes with happy, but sometimes mixed emotions. [/quote]
