I woke up for work, and decided it was time to take a pregnancy test. I was maybe 4 days late, but I don't have very regular cycles. I thought to myself, I just want to get yet another negative out of the way.
I started the shower and peed on the stick. I went about getting ready for my shower and checked the stick. Holy cow, is that really two lines?! I probably stared at that thing a good 30 seconds. I was in disbelief.
I woke Brian up, and asked him to really wake up. I said, "there's two lines!," and he replied, "I don't know what two lines means!" I then I said that I think I'm pregnant! I was crying and Brian was smiling big and tearing up. I just kept saying, is this for real, and I don't know what to do! It just didn't seem real.
We sat in bed for awhile and talked in amazement. Brian believed it much more than I did.
I got ready for work, then sat down and called to make an appointment. I also emailed my doc asking for a lab test for further confirmation. We also googled 'false positive' so I could be sure this is really a positive.
Of course, I can't really focus at work. Brian can't either. I stop by the lab on my way home from work, and it's positive! Brian says in response, "that must mean you're really pregnant!" Ha ha
We sat on the bed letting the "realness" set in and talking about what to do next for what, 1/2 hour or an hour before I asked you if you wanted to turn off the shower? It was pure blissful shock. WE DID IT!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea. I am so far away. This makes me feel as if I am a part of this blessed event. Thank you for letting me be a part of it! I love you both.
