    My sweet son was planned. I experienced two devastating miscarriages before being successful with him so I agree that every healthy baby brought to term is definitely a little miracle, no matter how egg meets sperm.

    One planned,,,,,,,,,,,,,the other not so much. Not in that order.

    Three blessings, one planned.
    Would never call a child an accident, ever.

    My son was a 'surprise' when I was 18. I didn't realize how much I wanted a baby until I got pregnant. I wouldn't call him an accident, accidents are things you sure DON'T want to happen.

    I would never refer to my children as accidents. No, neither one was planned but we weren't really doing anything to make sure it didnt happen either.

    My son was definitely a surprise... a very welcome surprise :) His father was not supposed to be able to make babies due to surgeries done in that area due to a birth defect, neurogenic bladder. Proof that doctors don't know everything :)

    I was, my mom was 38 and her babies, the twins just got off to school and she was looking forward to some "alone time" she thought she had bladder infection and argued with the doctor when he told her she was pregnant again. I was her 8th child..I loved being her "baby" miss being called that by her

    My 19 and 15 year old sons were not planned so I guess you could say they were accidents. I like to think of them as Blessings!

    Ugh...I hate the word "accident"! You weren't walking down the road, slipped on a banana peel and fell on a penis! LOL!

    No, my son was not a surprise, after infertility and two m/c's, I was surprised to be ovulating on my own, since I have pcos!

    I have six kids, none were planned, but they were definitely not accidents, by far the very best thing that happened in my life! Wouldn’t change a thing! And they have made me who I am today!

  • No accidents here. God knew exactly what he was doing.

    I have a daughter and she wasn't planned, it took 1 single night to make the mistake... I had gotten too smashed to make a responsible decision, to think about what I was doing. I have a perfect little girl to show for it regardless and I wouldn't change that decision for anything in the world as it would mean that she wouldn't have been born.

    Both of my kids are blessings! My oldest is 21 years old today :happy:
