WE'RE HAVING A BABY..

So.... I'm having a baby...

We found out that we were pregnant about two weeks before my 23rd birthday. I know when something isn't right with my body like most women do. One night I was talking to a close friend on the phone and I kept telling her I just didn't feel "right". Of course, the first thing my friend asks is, "When was your last cycle?" I started thinking about it and the last time I had my "Lady-time" was at the end of October. Usually I don't stress over how much time passes before I get my last one because I'm usually extremely irregular. She told me to take a test. I thought to myself, "nahh" it couldn't be. I was always told that I would have a very hard time conceiving. Welp, I took a test................ I actually took 6 tests and they all said "GIRL, YOUR PREGNANT!" Completely in shock I just could not get my head straight. When my boyfriend came home I showed him the tests and he was SHOCKED but extremely excited because he's always talked about starting a family. I, of course, started thinking about all the prep work, the time off of work, the sickness, the expenses..

Well all those thoughts went out of the window the following week. I experienced some blending that week and that Saturday it was a little heavier and I was very nervous about it. Of course, by that time I already shared the news with my parents and grandmother. My Mom told me if it would make me feel better to go get it checked out that it's normal to have spotting. I went to the ED at the women's hospital. They confirmed my pregnant with urine and blood tests. Then the very very sweet nurse was able to get me in for an early ultrasound right before they closed. This is when those worries went to the back of my head........ When I saw that monitor and saw that there is LIFE inside of me I felt so much joy and I felt EXTREMELY blessed. At this point I was 6 weeks and 1 day making my due date SEPTEMBER 6th.
