I wanted a way to document the joys of my first pregnancy so I thought a blog would be a great idea! Here's a little info to bring you up to date!
In July of 2010 we decided we were ready to try for a baby. Little did we know how long and grueling the road would be. We struggled with infertility for 16 months, saw many doctors, and had many tests done. We always kept faith in God that he would give us a baby and finally He has answered our prayers! On October 30th I took my first test at 10 dpo (days past ovulation). I was wanting to hold off a few more days but i just couldn't wait anymore so I caved. The result? A very faint POSITIVE! I couldn't believe it! I knew it could be a false positive or a faulty test so I was cautious. The test I used was known to be faulty, I found out. So the next day (Halloween), I went to the store to get the best tests I could get. They would be the First Response Early Results (Frer) tests. Picked up a back of 2 and went home to hold my urine as long as I could as to get a good reading. Time to take the test! I was really nervous!! I watched the screen for any signs of a pink line and then, THERE IT WAS, getting darker and darker by the second! I was so happy I was screaming and jumping up and down! Jacob was asleep on the couch so I grabbed the test and took it to him. I tried to wake him up but he's not the type you wake up while sleeping. He told me to leave him alone. Haha, but I didn't care! I was so happy! I started debating in my mind whether or not to call and tell my mom now or wait. Well I just couldn't stand it any longer and HAD to call her. She was excited to hear the news! Jacob woke up later and I showed him the test again and he said, "Well I guess you're pregnant." Ha and that I am! This was the best Halloween EVER!
Symptoms so far: cramping that sometimes feels like burning, headaches, a few bouts of nausea.
Above is the test from Halloween! See the line?!
