Guess What???

So as always when me and Josh are trying I anxiously wait the two weeks after ovulation to take the pregnancy test. As I stated last blog, we are trying again after an early miscarriage. I left you with a question is cycle day 32 too early to test. Well, to answer that question, yes it is. That is for me anyway. Day 33 is also too early to test. However, day 34 was just right. It was Halloween morning and I woke up with horrible heartburn. I never get heartburn, unless I'm pregnant. I jumped out of bed and took the test. It seemed to take forever. After a few moments, I got that depressed feeling and I knew it was going to be negative. I was about to just throw it in the trash when it finally revealed PREGNANT. I tripled checked to make sure it was not just my eyes playing tricks on me. Sure enough a BFP!!!!

While still in the bathroom, I quickly tried to figure out a cool way to tell Josh. I had originally planned to line a few tests out on the bathroom counter and let him discover them as he went to brush his teeth. However, we were expecting company and at any minute and I knew I couldn't wait that long. I ran out the bathroom, test in hand, and called for Josh. He so happened to be just in the other room and walked over talking to me about the party. He saw the test and looked at me. "Really?" he asked. A huge smile stretched across both our faces.

The original joy was overshadowed by fear. One thing we definitely agreed on was that we will NOT tell any of our family or friends until AFTER the first trimester. According to my calculations, that will be around Christmas. Hmm, I wonder what would be a fun way to tell our folks??? Any suggestions?

Thanks for listening.
