Last week, I felt sick A LOT and my breast hurt A LOT. I figured my body was just getting ready for my period. But, in the event it didn't start over the weekend, I'd take a test Tuesday morning before my band-appointment.
The weekend came and went - filled with nausea, painful breasts, body aches and fatigue, and smells so strong I thought I was going to vomit on several occasions.
This morning, I got up a little late to get ready for my appointment. Half asleep, I got the remaining home test from a year ago false alarm from the medicine cabinet and tried not to fall back asleep on the toilet. Through sleepy eyes, I watched as the first line appeared. Then the second line appeared. I started thinking "another false alarm". And as I sat there looking at the test sitting on the edge of the tub - I focused on the instructions printed on the side of the test. Two lines pregnant - one line not pregnant.
"NO FREAKIN WAY!" I started crying and hyperventilating a little bit. My poor puppy (that always follows me into the bathroom) looked at me like I was crazy!!
As quick as possible, I ran back to my bedroom in tears, test in hand (to be referred to as 'my pee-stick'). My husband didn't believe me at first!! I said "Baby, we need to go see your dad today! There's two lines on my pee-stick!!"
We laid in bed crying and in shock for about 20 min. We could have stayed longer if not for my band-appointment (which I was late to!). At the clinic, I took another test to confirm. The nurse came back "it's a big ol' plus sign!" After getting instructions on how to continue eating for my band and my baby, we set out to tell the world =)
WE'RE GOING TO BE PARENTS!!
