Big News!

To be honest with you, I had been feeling a bit strange over the past 2 weeks. Kind of queasy, a little dizzy and just a general odd feeling. I brushed it off thinking I was obviously overthinking this whole baby thing, and also I had a student who'd just come back from having swine flu- perhaps I was coming down with something?
So, Friday morning rolled around. We had a wedding that day, so I needed to do a pregnancy test so I would know if I could drink or not. I woke up busting to pee, so decided to get the test over and done with. I put the pregnancy test aside, immediately seeing that single 'control' line come up, thinking "Well, at least I'll be able to have a few drinks tonight!".
I glanced again at the stick, and hello.... there was a second line. Not as strong as the control line, but pretty damn strong.
Oh. my.god. I'm. pregnant!
Hubby was downstairs, he sauntered up the stairs (taking what seemed like an eternity), walked into the bathroom where I immediately showed him the test. We hugged and kissed and were generally excited.
'Well, there goes my drinking at the wedding', I thought. Luckily one of my other friends wasn't a big drinker at the wedding, so I didn't look completely obvious. Plus the waiter had filled my glass with wine, so I had it sitting there all night while I drank many an orange juice!
The wedding was beautiful by the way. We stayed at a really nice resort down the coast, which was super relaxing. Today Hubby and I had breakfast at the hotel with friends and then picked up a few groceries and things (including another pregnancy test, just to 'check', even though I fully understand that 'false positives' are few and far between. That second line came up even darker today by the way!).
We have a doctors appointment for Sunday seeing as we both have the day off.
Wow, there is so much to do and plan. My fingers and toes are very tightly crossed that everything goes well. We won't be telling anyone about our good news until 12 weeks, so my lips are sealed until then!
To be honest, I can't believe I fell pregnant on our first cycle of trying, I feel really lucky that it's happened so fast!
Ok, time to get some food and chill out with hubby. You can bet there will be many more baby updates to come!
