Officially de-lurking

DH and I found out on Halloween that we're pregnant! (Please, nothing on Facebook yet! We're waiting to announce to family/friends)

We had TTC'd unsuccessfully for a while a couple of years ago, and then had to put it on hold. We decided earlier this year that we'd start trying again after I ran the Nike Women's Half Marathon. As luck would have it, I ovulated only a few days after the race. I wasn't expecting this to be our lucky month at all (and figured it would likely take awhile). When my chart appeared to turn tri-phasic, I started testing at 7 dpo. I got a very faint positive at 10 dpo! We're now at 4 weeks and 4 days!

The EDD is July 13th (Friday the 13th). DH and I are getting a kick out of that coupled with the BFP on Halloween. 

I announced to DH on Halloween night. I had just purchased some little Converse baby shoes (since he's a huge Converse fan), and presented him with those. I caught it on video, which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4169xRc6jwA

At this point we're cautiously optimistic, since it's so early. But we've decided not to announce to family/friends yet until we've at least had our first appointment, and are thinking we'll wait until Christmas so we can plan it as a big surprise.

Anyway, I'm excited to join you ladies for real (instead of being a non-mommy lurker)!
