4:45 AM
I had just woken up from a very sleepless night. I was about 10 days "late" and had decided to take a pregnancy test just to ease my mind. I knew I wasn't pregnant, I was just late. My body often pulls these little stunts so I really, really did not think I was pregnant. Well. . . . the first test popped up the word PREGNANT so fast I couldn't believe it and I just knew it was faulty. So I got another test out of a different box, different brand. And what do you know, two pinks lines = PREGNANT.
SURPRISE!!!
I immediately woke Keith up and told him. He was seriously asleep. He was rubbing my arm and he asked me why I was crying. I was shocked, scared, happy, scared, and shocked! I let him go back to sleep because I seriously needed my Momma. She was sooooo excited and she is going to be an amazing Grandma! I also told two of my best friends but that was it. I was not ready to tell anyone else yet. I got ready and went to school but yes, all I could think about was that I was having a baby!!!
I really needed my doctor to tell me I was. So I made an appointment for right after school and sure enough, their test had the same results. So now I really know I'm pregnant. But I don't feel pregnant. It's such a weird feeling to have. I mean, I know that I am but I really don't know that I am. I can't see it, hear it, feel it, or anything. I honestly am afraid that I will lose it and not even know. It's crazy I know but all these emotions are going through my head. I felt so overwhelmed.
Keith is beyond excited!!! It calms me and brings out my excitement when talking to him. He is already looking for me a new vehicle. He is making other plans and talking about everything. It is so great to hear him so happy! He is thrilled at the thought of being a Dad! It's so neat! This baby is going to be so loved by so many!!!
Before I went to bed I called my brother, my grandma, and my aunt. My brother was in about as much shock as I was and kept asking me if I was joking. My grandma is SO happy and excited! She has been ready to be a Great Grandma! And my Aunt, well she guessed it right off before I could even tell her! :-) She did the exact same thing when I called to tell her I was engaged. I tickles me pink to hear my family so excited! Keith has began telling his family and will finish spreading the news today! I plan on telling my co-workers today as well!
Wow! I'm having a baby! I'm going to be a Mom! I can barely wrap my mind around this! Even through all of the shock and nervousness, I'm so excited! This is going to be amazing. My life has changed forever!
Congrats!!! The best thing that has ever happened to me was my son.... get ready.. its going to be AMAZING!!!
