Hello everyone.

For years, I relied on internet support forums for ladies with husbands, boyfriends, and fiances in the military; especially those involved in the War in Iraq. Naturally, this was the first place I would turn to.

I found out last week that my partner, Brandon, and I are expecting again. I miscarried at 3 months in March of last year, and after healing emotionally, we decided to start trying again in August.

I'm excited, but absolutely terrified. The doctor called in a blood test for me the day I called the office, and the results came in as just under 1 week according to the hormone levels. So, I either caught this one really early, or there is something wrong again. I am trying to have a positive outlook on things. Since we were trying and counting, I took the test early, so its possible that I just am really early in pregnancy. The doctor seems to frown that posibility, and I have an appointment with him tomorrow.

Should all go well, this will be my first child.

I'm beginning to think that I'm the odd woman out. I live in Ohio. Reading through some of the posts since I joined, it seems that everyone is across the sea from here.
