Today was a really hard. After a few days of shock and excitement, Brad drove me to the doctor's office after work to take yet another test. After four positive home test results, I figured it the test at the hospital would give me the same result. WRONG! After the longest five minutes of my life, a nurse called me back and told me that the test was negative. When I told her I had had four positive results and she looked at the date of my last period, she suggested that I call their appointment center and just tell them that I had a positive pregnancy test and need a prenatal exam. So that's exactly what I did. I also bought even more pregnancy tests. I plan on taking one first thing in the morning because I think the hospital's test may have come up negative because I used the bathroom only an hour or so before hand.
The first few hours after leaving the hospital were very hard. The emotional roller coaster started all over again. Luckily, Brad is the most loving, supportive man in the world. He helped me talk through my emotions, went on a walk with me, and then helped me start our balcony garden; and when it was all done I felt a million times better.
So, my next doctor's appointment is on Monday. I'll keep you posted.
XOXO

SURPRISE!
So, since I still haven't gotten my period since I stopped taking my pills, I decided to take a pregnancy test. When the faintest pink line showed up I thought there must be some kind of mistake. So I took another one.
So I went back to my parent's house and welcomed them home. I made dinner and pretty much went on with my evening as usual. When we had a moment alone, I casually dropped some hints to Brad. When he realized I wasn't kidding we agreed that we would call the doctor and get her opinion. Nothing to freak out about quite yet.
Today I decided to buy a different brand of test just so I could be sure it wasn't just something wrong with the tests I had used already. To make a long story short, here's what I wound up with:
So here I am, in total shock with not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR positive pregnancy tests. We've told a few close friends, but our families are int he dark until we see the doctor.
The hardest part about all of this is that it feels impossible to believe. Even though there's line after line, I feel like this must be some sort of joke. I can't ACTUALLY be pregnant, can I? With all the women who spend months or even years trying, can I really be pregnant when I've only been off my pills for a little over a month? Is there really a tiny human being in my tummy? My head is spinning and I don't think I'll settle into the idea until the doctor confirms it. But I'm gonna try my best to believe it when I say I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!!!

I think 2 and 3 show up the best in the pictures. |
