Ok…so…I couldn’t wait any longer (or at least I didn’t want to because I couldn’t think of anything else).  So on my lunch today I went to the company store and bought a couple pregnancy test.  I stopped drinking water for 3 hours then went into the work bathroom and tested….AND IT WAS POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 I’m so excited I could literally jump up and down but probably shouldn’t! 

 I haven’t even told Tim yet but am going to do so as soon as I get home.  We’re having dinner with my family tonight but its too soon to tell them yet.  Plus with my sister’s wedding coming up in a few weeks, I don’t want to steal her thunder with my news.

 But I’m just elated and overjoyed and feeling all these things and wishing it was 5 pm already so I could go home and have fun with my news!

 Obviously, its still very early so a lot can still go wrong, but right now I’m just thrilled.  We were able to get pregnant.  That in and of itself is a reason to celebrate.  We’ve known so many that have struggled with infertility for months and years and I just feel incredibly blessed right now that it happened for us.  Well, this changes things for Reeds Lake.  I’m going to have to find out how hard I can run without risking the baby’s health.  Oh my gosh!  I’m pregnant!  I still can’t believe it!  I’ll take another test in the morning to confirm it and hurry to see a doctor.  Oh, and funny thing…the baby is due on March 7^th, 2013…my BIRTHDAY!  What’s even crazier is that I was due on my Dad’s birthday, but came early.  Had I been on time, I would have shared a birthday with my dad and grandpa. 

 Wow, this changes everything.  I’m still just glowing and don’t know what to think.  I’m nervous too.  I don’t want to do anything wrong!

 I know it sounds crazy, but I just had a “feeling” that I was pregnant.  Especially after that dream I had last week.  My breasts have been sore and tender for a week, but that’s pretty typical when I’m expecting my period.  I’ve felt tired too, but it didn’t seem all that unusual, especially considering how much sleep I sometimes get (like last night).  The biggest thing for me I think was a slight cramping I’m feeling in my uterus.  Its not all the time, but its often and its not bad like menstrual cramps but its noticeable, like my uterus is stretching.

 SOOO excited!!!!  Can’t wait to tell Tim! 

After I shared the news with Tim!
