CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
Not your stereotypical xpap user! 5 feet tall, healthy weight, female, and 23. I've had OSA undiagnosed at least since high school.

In addition to OSA, I also order up random food I don't like while I'm asleep.

These days, the best I can do is have pregnant ideas.

Congratulations! Hope all goes well.

Congrats! I am among the ranks of those who hope cpap doesn't cause a pregnancy for then... LOL I have two girls, 5 and almost 2 and it took me a year to get pregnant each time. needed Clomid. So I do get how it is to wait a while for it to happen, it's tough but so worth it.

FWIW my husband had a vasectomy, so I think it would take more than a CPAP to get me pregnant again.

So, do you think it had anything to do with the water? I mean, were you using distilled, RO, Perrier, or just plain ol' tap?

Wow -- maybe I need to try harder.......
If I got pregnant I wouldn't have to find another job. I'd make more in the residuals, talk show circuit and movie offers than I'd ever make on payroll!!!!!
I can just see the headlines......(use your imagination!!!! ) (I'll be 59 next month and I'm a guy.....you can fill in the blanks )

But I've also said since High School (yeah. Sometimes I can remember that far back...): If it was up to men to have babies, the species would have died out centuries ago!!!!

Congratulations mbridget - good vibes heading your way for an uneventful event......

take care
cheers

Wars arise from a failure to understand one another's humanness. Instead of summit meetings, why not have families meet for a picnic and get to know each other while the children play together?

Congratulations to you! Your baby will be born nice and pink from all of the oxygen. Look for that 10 APGAR.

This is great news! After a few weeks of burning the midnight oil, you'll be begging to get that mask strapped on for a little shut eye. Keep us posted about your progress.

Congrats on your happy news!

A couple nights ago I dreamed I was pregnant. I was worrying to a friend that it is risky having a baby at 42. She reminded me I'm not 42. I replied, "Oh, that's right I'm 52." She gave me 'that look" so I thought a moment and screamed, "Oh no - I'm 57! How am I going to explain this to my kids?" Worst part about the dream is it didn't start till after I was already pregnant.

Have a happy healthy pregnancy1

Kathy
