I want a baby!

Published on September 10, 2004 By Janders In Home & Family

Alright, it's official..... I am baby crazy. I have babies on the brain, its all I think about. If I don't get pregnant soon I think I will scream. (Or cry, but I do that at every negative test!)

Today I was holding a customers baby at work, and I didn't want to give him back.

I wish we would get pregnant soon, I hope this is the month. The only thing that would be kind of scary is that if we get pregnant this month, we will have a close due date to Jayden's due date.

I will keep praying that baby blessings come our way.

I didn't know that was still legal.

It's legal for an individual plan (in Minnesota anyways). Neither of our employers offers group health so we had to get it on our own. I've called and talked to them about it. My husband used to work for a company that offered group health and we'd be ok if we'd paid the outrageous cobra amounts to stay on that. He got a job that's only a fifteen minute commute as opposed to an hour and better pay. More time, more money. So it's our own fault, we made the choice and we have to live with it. The good thing is I can start trying to conceive in December, but I'm going to wait just in case I deliver early. Never have before, always been late, four days with my first, and my second was scheduled right on the due date and when I went it there was no signs of labor in sight. But better to be safe than sorry!

Anyway, again, good luck to you Janders! I'm crossing my fingers and sending baby-vibes your way.

It was just if you tried for Jayden or if she was an unexpected blessing -- you're young (24) and I wondered why you were so worried and trying so hard and thought that in my experience things like that happen when you least expect them - when you relax and enjoy the ride --- I Please don't hate me

Trina~ I would never hate you!!!!! Yes we tried for Jayden, and it took us a year to get pregnant with her. We are tryin g hard now because infertility runs high with my celiac disease and you have a bigger chance of starting menopause early. With these being my hopefully most fertile years, we are trying now, so that it won't be too late.

Your question did not offend me in the least, I am pretty open about that kind of stuff. Just the opposite, I think it is nice that you seem to care about me and my families well being, so its all good my dear Trina!

I am on an individual plan right now, but just started on my companies group plan. ( I am also in MN) I am spending a bunch of money extra a month to keep my individual plan so that in case I have a complicated pregnancy (like my first) that if I can't work I won't have to worry about losing my health insurance.

I am assuming you have health partners (as it is the only MN individual insurance I know of) just be careful, because they are super picky about what during pregnancy they cover. After our ultrasound that told us our daughters heart had stopped beating, they only covered 80% of the bill from the complications that I had after delivery. It left us with a couple thousand dollar bill, that we are just finishing paying off.

In a normal healthy pregnancy they cover it all though, which I really hope you have when you conceive...

Happy baby thoughts to all.
