Okay I am sitting here thinking of how crazy the last four months have been! It was four months ago that I discovered he was having an affair. And now it has been four days since I discovered I am pregnant! I have to say it again..."I AM PREGNANT!" After 3 years and 4 months of not getting pregnant, we had pretty much decided it wasn't going to happen, at least not without some serious medical help. But here I am pregnant...after not having any meds of dr. help for over year! I hadn't even been taking my temperature to see when I ovulated. I honestly didn't figure I have been ovulating with the wacky long periods I have had. I am still in shock and even though I have been to the dr. for a test, that confirmed the HPT results...I still don't think it will really hit me until the first time I hear the heartbeat. He is so thrilled...he is already talking about "if it is a boy this and if it is a girl this". It's so cute.
It all actually started March 20th. I had some spotting and cramping and so I thought I was finally going to start my period...which was late seeing as how my last one had been January 20th. Well it never started. I didn't think too much of it...assuming it would start within a week. Well last week I started feeling nauseous and did throw up supper on Wednesday. So Saturday morning (April Fool's Day!) I took a HPT figuring it would be negative and I would realize I was over analyzing again...even though this time I really felt like it had to be because I was pregnant. But by the time I took the test out of my urine stream to put the cap back on it...the second line was there...darker than the first one. I just stared at it. I thought I was imagining that second line I swear. So I jumped on the bed and startled Donny because he thought I was screaming "Honey-wake up" because he overslept for work! LOL. His first words when he saw the test were "OMG a little Donny!" LMAO! Things have been a blur since Saturday...I know it's early...but we have told all of our family and close friends. We couldn't help it...we have waited so long! I am not sure how far along I am...thus I don't really know a due date. But I think that spotting and cramping on March 20th was probably implantation and if that is the case I am 5 to 6 weeks along. So I am going with the due date of December 3rd for right now. If I go with the January 20th being the first day of my last period...then I would be like 10 weeks and I don't think I am. So basically it looks like we will have to wait for an ultrasound to know for sure. I have have my first OB appointment next Thursday so I bet she will decide when to do the first ultrasound. I know they don't normally do one until like 16 to 18 weeks...but I am hoping she will do one sooner so we can have a more accurate due date. Plus I will just plain feel better. I think I am going to be more nervous with the baby inside me than once it is born.
So anyways...I am going to be a Mommy finally! I am excited to be able to be writing about being pregnant now!
