Luciana- I remember reading that it DID take her and her husband quite awhile to concieve Grace (i.e. a couple of years). With Taylor, I think she DID say something about how they were surprised it only took nine months to concieve him given the struggles they had concieving Grace.

Anyway, I’m guessing that it was sort of a, “Well, we won’t push our luck, but if we DO concieve a third baby, great!”

Congrats to them, but I don’t get all the comments about her having a hard time getting pregnant. I was in the view audience once, and elisabeth said it took her 9 months to get pregnant with taylor. That’s not exactly what I would call a difficult time, especially when I know people that it took them years to be able to have a child and had to take fertility drugs and everything, something elisabeth hasn’t had to do. She has been married only 6yrs and her oldest child is almost 4, 2nd baby 14 months, and now a 3rd child due less than 2yrs after her 2nd baby. That’s not exactly an unfertile woman, quite the opposite if you ask me. I also don’t think the baby was a surprise she has said plenty of times if you watch the view, that she wanted a big family and kids close together.

I like when an unexpected arrival is called a surprise instead of an accident. All children are blessings!! Congrats to the whole family. I am also a mother to 3 small children and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done!!

I love the View but Elizabeth H is not one of my favorite TV personalities, in fact, politically we couldn’t be more different. However, I have always felt her to be a kindred spirit because I too had trouble conceiving my children. I have always been rooting for her in that regard. I am very happy for her, esp since she struggled so much in the past. It is such a blessing- I only hope I will be as lucky when I start trying for #3. Congrats to to Elizabeth and her family.

jackie- Elisabeth and her husband had trouble concieving the first two, so I’m guessing they didn’t count on being able to concieve a third so easily, hence not realizing she was pregnant.

j- It’s possible that she just thought her chest enlargment was PMS related or something. PMS bloat isn’t always confined to the stomach, you know!

Elisabeth (aka Bessy…. I still remember that from Survivor lol)!! Congratulations!! So excited for you and your beautiful fam!

Eventhough people give you a hard time, be proud that you always stand your ground, stand up for beliefs, treat people with respect, and don’t let people put you down. If I were you, I’d break down crying sometime…. you can take the heat though, girl.

Looking forward to hearing this baby name!!

Wonder if she’ll take up her Dreft blog again?

Oh God, is he already 14 months old!!! How time flies! It feels like it was yesterday he was born.

I didn’t think there would be an anounce of another pregnancy for Elisabeth that soon, but it’s really great news. Congrats to Elisabeth, Tim, Grace and Taylor!
