Rumors are true, and we are so excited. This week marks the 2nd trimester of our pregnancy. Jared and I were quite surprised to learn in January that we are expecting since we had just agreed to start our family in December!
Coming back from the holidays I had a bad ear infection and needed to go to the doctor. The day before my appointment I had a feeling I should take a home pregnancy test just in case. I had a home pregnancy test and thought what the heck... it's kind of fun taking those things. Not thinking twice about it, I continued preparing dinner. Much to my surprise when I went back into the bathroom a few minutes later I saw not one but two little pink lines! I immediately called my sister, Cathryn, to see what this I really meant. She confirmed two pink lines really does mean I'm pregnant and encouraged me to take another test... so I took two more and confirmed what the first one was telling me. The next day at my doctor's appointment I took a blood test and it came back positive again. This really is happening for us.
First reactions: Cathryn thought is was funny that Jared and I would be having a baby before our first wedding anniversary; Jared was stoked; all grandparents extremely happy; and me... well I was in denial for a couple of weeks!
The first few months have been pretty good with only a few weeks of sickness but all in all I'm feeling great and gaining weight.
We'll keep everyone posted.
I could not be any more excited for you! I am so glad that you are feeling good.. now only 5 more kids to go! If it is this easy.. why not. Please keep us posted on what you are having.
