Well, folks...I peed on a stick this morning, and guess what? We are going to be mommies!! :) I am so utterly thrilled right now-I can't even sleep. This is the most wonderful and scary feeling I've ever had. I am terrified that something may happen. We worked so hard to get to where we are right now, and I've shared the journey with the three of you that are reading this....lol But isn't it bad luck to talk about it before 3 months? I mean, 1/4 of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. There is so much that could go wrong. Plus, I don't feel like I'm in the clear until the doctor tells me for sure that I'm pregnant. First, I worried about getting pregnant. Now, I'm worried about staying pregnant. I really need to relax!! :)
I was convinced that I was pregnant for the past 5 days. I worked myself up, and I just knew that it was going to be hard on me if it turned out that I was just experiencing side effects from the Progesterone that I'm taking. My Mom tried to calm me down and prepare me, but my Grandmother told me not to even think about that possibility. She believes in the power of positive thinking and she was my life coach for the past three weeks.
So, now we wait!! Because it's 2:15am on "Black" Friday, everyone is asleep or either busy standing in lines so I haven't told anyone but my Sara (Who sounds like she can't sleep either by the tossing and turning going on). This is so wonderful...We're finally going to become Mommies after two years of heartbreaks, upsets, and meds. PLEASE send some positive vibes our way in hopes that nothing will happen to this baby (or babies!!)!! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving...lots of love and THANK YOU for caring enough to follow my journey!
I don't know that I have ever been more excited for anyone than I am for the 2 of you right now!!! This is amazing news and I pray that everything goes perfectly!!! Love you guys and please keeps us updated!!!
ReplyDeleteThe emotions you're experiencing are completely normal! I remember calling my dr. for every crampy feeling in those first 12 weeks. I read tons of books and researched tons of stuff online (I do NOT recommend this). One thing that did ease my mind was that once you hear your baby's heartbeat (around 8-10 weeks), there's an even more slim chance of anything happening! Also, one other thing that helped, with every day you're pregnant, your chance of anything going wrong decreases! I'm so completely excited and still in shock over this. Mama ain't ready to be a granny yet. lol. Congrats to you and Sara!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Nicole...that progesterone will make you slightly crazy and a little more tired...but its all worth it, Promise! I've got great stories about crying over pancakes my first trimester, you just wont believe. But then again, as you experience it you will understand! 8)
