I just found out!

I don't plan on posting this until my husband and family knows, but I took a pregnancy test today. My very first one! And I wanted to capture the details while they are still fresh.

First of all I pretty much "knew" on Monday. I am one of the few women who actually tracks her cycles and knows her body inside and out. If something is different, I know it! My cycles have been 30-29 days long. Well, this morning taking my temperature, I was at day 35. Which means I'm 5-6 days late. This morning I research online to see how soon I can take a pregnancy test. They recommended I use First Response. So at lunch I went out a bought one. I didn't have time to come back and take it right away so I waited for 2 hours. So at 1251 I go into the bathroom at work ( I know, lame!) and I do the pee on the stick thing. Which isn't as easy as you would think when you're shaking out of nervousness! Then I tried to not look at the stick for three minutes. Tim text me during this wait time and I'm trying to act normal knowing that in a few minutes our lives will either be changed forever or I will start crying because of disappointment. Not that I meant to get pregnant right now, but I'll get into those details later.

Finally my cell said 12:54 and I grabbed the stick and saw two lines! One was faint, but there. It was positive! I just starting shaking, smiling, and crying and thanking God then wishing I could share this with someone right away. I want to wait to tell Tim until I recieve a gift I bought him. On Monday I ordered him personalized golf balls that say, "Congrats! You're going to be a daddy!". I'm having them delivered to Stephanie's house telling her it's a Christmas present for Tim. As soon as I get those in my hands, I am giving them to him. I figured I'd order them even though I didn't have confirmation, but someday I'd be pregnant and want to tell him in a special way. Now if I can just wait until I get them! Oh and let me just add that we have our final builder walk through tonight and tomorrow is my 28th birthday. Such an amazing week! And I made an appointment to see my Dr. tomorrow to have the official test done. I figured that would be a neat thing to do on my 28th birthday!
