Wahooo! After 13 months of trying to get pregnant we have succeeded! We thought we were never going to get to this point! Sooooooooo excited! I decided to start this blog, because I have a hard time keeping a secret. So, I can write about it and then maybe won't have the urge to tell before I want to. That is probably wishful thinking though. Sorry to our families if we don't see you as often in the next few weeks, we aren't avoiding you per say, but just don't want to spill the beans! As of now, we are planning to tell everyone around Thanksgiving.
Here is how it went down...
When I got home from work I decided to test (with my sister-in-law and Jessica encouraging me) and it was +. I came out of the bathroom screaming, Devin probably thought there was a big spider or something because I was sooo loud. He came down the hallway and I told him. This is not how I ever envisioned telling him that we were expecting, but hey it is an exciting time! We stood there a few minutes, yes I was crying, and then had a "oh crap what do we do now" discussion. We decided to call my doctor and I got an appointment for 1:30 tomorrow! I'm excited that they got me in so soon! I guess in the future when they tell me I have to wait a month I should just lie and say I am pregnant! They say its going to take an hour and half which seems long, but she said there is alot of info they need. She also said most husbands don't go to the first appointment because it is so long. Devin has been sick (took a halfday Monday, and took all of today off) so if he goes back to work he will be swamped and if he doesn't go he probably shouldn't go if hes sick, but all is okay because Brittany has a half-day tomorrow so she volunteered to go with me and listen to all the info. She will probably pay more attention than Devin would anyway! Shes a life-saver (and I am not just saying that because shes the only one that knows about this blog, or am I?).
I am thankful that Devin let me run out and tell Brittany right away. I would not have been able to keep it from her. I kinda feel like we are partners in crime! I just went down to the bank and showed her the picture on my camera phone and she figured it out. I think she was expecting me to tell her she was going to be an aunt when I went in beings we had been texting all day about the possibility. I told her I was stopping by on my way home from the store because I didn't want to be with sick Devin. I really don't think she bought it though.
The nurse said I should have a due date after tomorrow, according to my calculations it should be around July 1st, but we all know numbers are not what I am good at!
Well that is it for now!
