The day after Valentines Day, February 15th I took 8 pregnancy tests and then went out and bought two more boxes that had multiple tests in it. I was sure they were all wrong, but at the same time it explained so much. Still unconvinced and scared to death I needed a doctor to give me the exact same test I had take 8 times and diagnose the results. Positive. They were positive. He said "congrats, is this an exciting thing?" and I said "yeah, Unexpected, but yeah we'll get used to the idea". David was in fact not he first person I told, I knew he wasn't ready to hear it and he was not home when I first tested. When I took that first test I did not wait the 3 minutes before checking the results, instead I took a 12 minute shower. When I got out I glanced over at the test expecting it to be negative. Positive. I sat down and cried and than took another (above, first 2 tests taken) and it said the same thing so I text my best friend who has 2 of her own. She was so happy, and that made me feel better about it all. It still did not feel real.
When David got home I sat down with him and said I have something to tell you, and I said I think were having a baby, he just turned into a stone haha no emotion, no response. He wanted to forget I said anything, he was so scared (so was I but im a girl so its different). He told me to not talk about it and in a week take another test and see what it said and I said no if im pregnant I need to start taking care of this little fetus (thats when I went to the doctor). We soon told our parents and families and closest friends. Next month we get to find out if were getting a boy or a girl =] Moments like these I live for.
But they didnt. When we went in the next morning to have our first ultrasound I was so scared they would not find a baby, but they did ;] The first ultrasound (when you are so early) is usually vaginal so they can get a good look at the baby and the ovaries and other baby maker organs in there. I had a TV hanging on the wall right in front of me so I could watch what she was seeing and looking at. She spent a good 15min looking around and typing things and I never saw a baby or something I thought could even be a baby (I was looking for a bean). Than she moved it and I saw this perfect baby (pictured above), I started crying. It was beautiful. The most amazing thing I have ever seen or made ;] We got to see the heart beat also, it was so perfect. Than it started to become more and more real. Being able to hear the heart beat is like the icing on the cake, its the best sound I have ever heard and I want to listen to in 24/7. Every night before I go to bed I put my stethoscope in my ears and the other end on my belly and I try to listen so hard and hope my baby is big enough and strong enough that I will be able to hear it, But I still cant yet =[ Ill save that for the Doppler I guess. I first felt my baby move at 11weeks which is kinda early. Its more common for super tiny girls to feel it that early. I feel the baby move daily now (today is 14w2d) and I have been for a while. It super soft and tickles. I started a time line that I will put in the baby book right by the 'first step', 'first tooth', 'first smile' you get the idea. This is it so far....
