We had a meeting at the hospital today to talk about future pregnancies and the chances of anything going wrong again. Basically they told us they are pretty confident that neither of the two major complications will happen again, but there could be a slightly increased chance. They said they would be scanning and testing lots next time though, mainly to give us peace of mind. They couldn't really tell us more than that, but today we were forced to think about the future.
We've talked about having other children, but it's hard to not feel like we would be 'replacing' Lily in some way. Obviously that's not the case, and any future child would be Lily's little brother or sister, but it's a thought that popped up. Both Sarah and I want kids more than anything, and have for a while now. We've been waiting for the right time, but it's hard to think we're both 26 now and we never really expected to be this old when starting our family.
I'm looking forward to getting to know our future kids, as getting to know Lily changed my life forever. It's going to be hard trying not to worry about things early on, even though I know the chances of anything going wrong are low. I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it, but we know it will be difficult. Once again thank you all for your continued support, it's amazing =)
Today I'm thankful for: The opportunity to get out and see Thor at the movies with some mates today. It was just what I needed =)
