Before too long we’re going to be needing more car-space, since baby #4 is on the way (and after we wasted all that energy discussing birth control!). After a disastrous few months on the mini-pill–can they really call it “break-through bleeding” if the bleeding never stops?–I decided to explore other options, and in the three-week span after I went off the pill but before I got my diaphragm (hello, 1978!), I got knocked up. If only I’d peed on the stick before I spent $45 on spermicide (a valuable commodity here in Sweden, apparently) and another $30 on the diaphragm itself — I wonder if there’s a black-market trade in outmoded contraceptive devices?

I suppose it’s time to start shopping for a mini-van.

Congratulations!! Now I’ve really got to get to Sweden soon, because I haven’t got to met Petra or Tage yet!!
Congratulations Beverly! That’s wonderful news!
Oh no!
Congratulations! I said – when you discussed birth control – that perhaps you shouldn’t go the ultimate way (sterilisation) because you never know when you changed your mind! Although I guess here it was more of “oops” than planning.
Wow! Congratulations!!! I hope you are feeling well!
Oh my goodness! Guess how I found out! Through Momma! LOL! She said just a few minutes ago, “Have you read Beverly’s blog lately?” I said, “No, I need to catch up on blogs.” And she just smiled and said, “You need to.” But before she even got out the word “need” I said, “Is she pregnant?!” LOL! Congrats!
How are you feeling?
Hi, I know I’ve already talked to you, but it was sorta quick, so I wanted to write and say that I’m sooo happy for you. I knew you’d have another, I’m not surprised at all. But it makes me so happy and ever since I found out, I can’t wait to come home! I love you guys so much, you Tjerngren’s. Another little Tage to spoil, thats gonna rock. 🙂
Wow! I’m late to the party, but congratulations! Surprises are nice.
