Blueberry!

We had our first OB appointment today!  We just met with an OB nurse, had a ton of tests done, and scheduled our 8-week ultrasound (okay, so it won’t happen until week 9, but how exciting!). 



Also, we have started referring to the little bug as “Blueberry.”  That’s how big baby is this week, and for some reason it stuck.  So hello, Blueberry!

Here, pee in this cup.

Went to see primary care doctor and got an official confirmation of pregnancy!  


The nausea has set in and is unbearable at times.  It seems a little early for this, but whatever.  I’ll take it.

New sense of smell...

Flowers, particularly lilacs, smell amazing.  Seriously.  Amazing.

Pregnancy Test: Take 2

Took a second pregnancy test today.  Partly because I’m still in shock and partly because I just wanted to see it again.  POSITIVE.

Whoa.

This morning I took a pregnancy test and....


And then I just sat there.  And stared at it.  For like an hour.  Seriously.  And then I had to go to work.  So I had to stop staring.  I wanted to call Kristin, but knew she was in school, and didn’t want to interrupt her in the middle of teaching.  And if I did then she would have to act like everything was fine which I knew would be VERY hard.  So I didn’t call.  Instead I called Auntie Cassi (sorry Kristin – I had to tell someone!).  I spent the rest of the day pretty much freaking out.

Later that evening, once Kristin and I were both home, I tried to be all funny and creative in telling her the news.  She totally missed all of my hints, though, and I ended up just blurting it out.  It seems this is a pattern with us...we had a similar result when I proposed to her.  Ah well, it was still awesome.  She said she knew I was pregnant last night when I came home from work, made dinner, and then layed down on the couch and fell asleep without even eating a bite (I have been really tired lately)!  

The last year has been frustrating, annoying, stressful, and exciting all in one.  But today?  Today was just awesome, and I can’t help but think that this is the beginning of something spectacular...
