So it's been a LONG while... but I'm finally posting something!

5 tests later...
Okay... so I knew I felt funny, not like something was wrong but something was definatly different. I felt sick all the time, everything was louder, everything smelled stronger. My monthly was late, which I was starting to become accustomed to, probably because I was stressing my self out with "I want to be pregnant" and every month I would test and 15 -45 mins after I tested I would start. So I didn't expect anything different. Well, I waited until I was 5 days late before I convinced myself to go buy a test. So I walked around walmart for about an hour before I actually went back to the pharmacy dept. Then I walked around for another fifteen minutes before I picked up the box. I finally went home and sat down at the computer and played solitare for about another 45 minutes before I convinced myself to actually take the test. I went into the bathroom hurried up and did what I had to do and threw the test in the medicine cabinet before it had a chance to tell me "NO" again. I went back to my computer and played another game of solitare before the anxiety was almost going to kill me! I went back into the bathroom and opened the cabinet and there on the test were 2 lines. I set it back down and left the room for a minte, then went back in and picked it up again. My husband was sleeping between shifts and I didn't want to scare him, so as much as I wanted to yell I didn't. With test in hand I walked into the living room trying not to cry or fall on my face and I said "Petey" it was too late I was crying. He opened his eyes and looked at me, then he closed his eyes again. "Petey, wake up" He noticed this time that I was crying. He looked around the room and then at my shakey hand and said "Are you pregnant?" I started balling, I've never been so happy! We talked about for a while then I got up and went to take the 2nd test. After that one came out positive I called my cousin to bring me some 'offical' tests. Then I took one more before I went to bed. I fell asleep and when I woke up I was sure I was just dreaming, so I went into the bathroom and took yet another test. It was still positive, and I still felt sick. I was finally convinced.
Our baby is due on or around April 10th. We're hoping for April 12th... that was my Grandma's birthday. I really don't care if its a boy or a girl as long as the baby is healthy! I'll keep everyone updated on Dr visits and all of that good stuff! I'M SO EXCITED!
