So today went a little differently than expected to say the least. As you all know today was the day for our appointment at The Fertility Center…but we ended up cancelling it and here is why…
WE ARE PREGNANT!
I know, we are in shock! Here’s the story…
So last night Jared said that I should really just take a pregnancy test just to make sure before we spend all
this money. So, I said “Yeah ok I think we have one at home, if we do I’ll take it”. So when we got home I headed upstairs and took the test and Jared was down stairs doing whatever… When I looked at the test…Yup…two lines. I re-read the packaging like 4 times and then told Jared I thought there was a line. He didn’t believe me and went to look for himself. Then he came out and said “HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”. We both looked at each other and decided it was a mistake so we just went to bed. Then this morning I found two different ones that had come with ovulation sticks we had bought earlier…and they both came back positive! I called The Fertility Center and cancelled our appointment, and called my regular Dr. to get some blood work done.
So Jared and I are in total disbelief we really don’t believe this is happening and are hesitant to truly believe it without more PROOF as Jared said. Haha.
About 1pm we went in to have the blood work done and they are supposed to call us back today – they want my HCG levels to be in the 2000’s then they want to do an ultrasound. So we will see where my levels are today and if they are high enough we will schedule that, if not then we will do the blood work again in a couple days and check the levels then.
So as of right now I guess I am pregnant? – WEIRD.
I guess the thought of us shelling out a bunch of money finally got our insides working…and if that’s what it takes I’m all for it haha.
We talked about what we wanted to do, since this is odd having EVERYONE know on the same day we found out, usually people wait a couple months, but we figured we were all in this together at this point. Besides as my friend Margo put it, the more people that know the more people can start praying for health. I am nervous about having a miscarriage just because if it takes you a long time to get pregnant you have a slightly higher risk, but whatever is going to happen will happen and I would rather have the support of everyone anyway. So here we go on this journey.
I said to Jared this morning…What are the odds of this happening the DAY before we go to a fertility clinic…and all he said was… “For us…this is pretty much in line with how our life goes.” And I just laughed, it’s true whatever plan we come up with or whatever we think we are doing – it’s always something different, but that is why I love our life so much, we never know what is going to happen. We are just gonna keep sitting back and enjoying the ride!
Weird things:
My mom told my step dad two days ago that she thought I was pregnant
My sister, Erin – a doctor, told me right when we let them know we were going to The Fertility Center that she knows a lot of people that make the appointment and then suddenly get pregnant…I was like “yeah OK”…but it’s TRUE!
I am not going to put anything on Facebook or anything like that yet – I will probably wait to do that until about the 3 month mark, but I guess it’s not a secret anymore.
