had children, home pregnancy testing required being two weeks late with a period in order to produce a reliable result.  A decade before, doctors wanted women to have missed two periods before scheduling an appointment.  

As long as you aren't on any medications that could be harmful to a developing fetus, I see no cause for knowing.  If pregnancies were so fragile, our planet would not be dealing with the population its not dealing with.

Would the Seasonale be dangerous for a developing fetus?

not until after 12 weeks or more.  Since I've always had brutal morning sickness for the last 4 weeks of the first 12, I'm assuming I'll know it by then.

You may not want to know, but we do!  Let us know when you find out.

Good luck whatever the outcome.  I know of at least two families where baby #3 was a big surprise and they all said that they had the most fun with that child, even after one of the moms admitted to crying when she realized she was pregnant.  So good luck!

My planned baby #3 will be here in less than a month.  I found this pregnancy the most annoying out of the bunch although I had no real health issues.  Maybe it's just me getting old but that's the way it's been for me.  By the way, ms was brutal with this baby and lasted a long time and it was not so bad with #1 and every thing about my pregnancy with #2 was a piece of cake.  The other thing about this pregnancy was it was very different from my first two in the symptoms I had like various food aversions, cravings, different aches and pains and other things.  This kid must already have ideas of its own.
