Hello out there!
So, yesterday I found out I was pregnant. I had kindof suspected for a couple days, as i was dry heaving in the morning, and falling asleep at work. My boobs, yeah, they hurt, but they ALWAYS hurt a ton when I am about to get my period, so I brushed that off.
My husband and I got married in October of 2011, and started pretty much from day one "not un-trying" to get pregnant. Meaning we knew we were in the right place, the right time, the right circumstances...but were so damn scared, we didnt want to say to ourselves 'we are trying to have a baby'. Well, that lasted about 4 months; then we actively started trying- timing it right, talking to doctors, etc.
A year later, we thought something must be wrong. A family history of Endometriosis was thought to be a strong contender for "why". So, we made an appointment at the fertility clinic (5 months out was the soonest they could take us) to have some tests run. In the meantime, we just did our thing and stopped thinking about it.
Then, yesterday. I bought the test on a whim, thinking it would confirm my belief that I was NOT pregnant, and just had the flu. But no- the instant I peed on that stick, the + sign showed up.
So, I cried for a while, then went out and bought another test. Also positive. Cried some more. Told my husband. He cried. Our dog whined- I bet she already knew.
I am overjoyed. Terrified!...but overjoyed. I just cant share it with anyone yet, and that is killing me!!
I always got a kick out of my friends calling their unborn babies "bean" or "pea" and such. I wondered what I would refer to mine as- I should have known, really. I am a HUGE nerd, and the first word that popped into my head was "Stormageddon" from a Doctor Who episode. And, considering the non-stop (morning, noon and night) wretching, acne, hunger pains, and napping, this sure feels like a storm.
Then again, if it hadnt come on so fiercly, I'm not sure I would have realized for another several weeks! So, thanks, Stormageddon, for coming in like a lion!
