I'm Pregnant!!!

No...you did not read that wrong! I am pregnant! Can you believe it??!!! I honestly felt in my heart that it would not happen this way!

Monday I went to go get my pregnancy blood test done. Usually I just wait for my period to come because doing the lab test just seems too heartbreaking. I was waiting patiently all day at work for my results. My friend Kim in San Diego who I met from my "Trying to Concieve" boards was texting me back and forth giving me comfort. She found out she is pregnant on Saturday and we were both hoping that we would be pregnant together. She got the results of her 2nd blood test and I was still waiting and waiting....

Finally at 1:30pm on Monday, I get a phone call from my Nurse practitioner Debbie. I had missed the call because I was on the other line. I call her right back up and head straight to the hallway at work. She tells me "Guess what? You are pregnant!!!" I screamed in the hallway and ran all the way down to the bathroom where I locked the door and squeeled with excitement and tears running down my face. I couldn't believe I had finally gotten this phone call!!!! She was excited too and I was so happy that she was the one that did the IUI and was now calling me up to tell me the good news. She told me to go back on Wed for another blood test to make sure the number is rising and to check a few other things. Also that i need to schedule my first ultrasound in 2 weeks to check heartbeat. She also talked about drinking more water, taking my prenatal vitamins and to avoid soft cheeses. OMG my head was spinning...I really had no idea what the heck she was talking about Ha! ha! My brain is in a fog right now. So after the phone call....I headed out to the car to call Hsien who was estatic and relieved. Relieved that we are not having to go down the IVF route and have to pay all that money. Strangely also I had an afternoon date with my very pregnant friend and so of course I told her too when I got to her home. I couldn't hold it in and I was so happy to say that her and I were pregnant at the same time! Of course her only having 2 weeks left...but it still counts! =D

So here I am...pregnant! I feel crampy, bloated and just plain yucky but am I complaining HECK NO!!!! I hope that little baby is settling nicely into my uterus and wants to stay for another 9 months and be healthy and happy for me.

If all goes well....baby will be coming in November 2011 right before Thanksgiving! I can't believe that we will be hanging up that extra stocking this year for our little one. This all feels so unreal!

So now...I wonder who reads my blog? This post will surely get a reaction...so send me a text if you have read this! =P I am not really making announcements or telling a lot of people obviously until my doctor clears me that we are okay but I think it's okay to tell the people that care. And also....NO FACEBOOK posts about this! LOL! I know it will be harder for me but I just want to be extra cautious right now....I am still cautiously optomisic at this point.

Wow....so I'm pregnant! Now what?!
