I'm pregnant, it seems.
It sure doesn't feel like it.
I took a pregnancy test last night after being 3 days late, and it was clearly positive, but truly, I keep waiting for my period to start. It just doesn't feel real to me yet, I guess.
I really didn't even want to take the test last night -- I thought I should give it a few more days -- but Jeff was actually hounding me to take one. I was pretty anxious about it because I just didn't know what to expect. Or what I wanted.
No, that's not right. We've been trying since last August (2009) -- about 6.5 mos -- so, of course, I wanted it to be positive, but I guess having never done this before, never had this experience before, I was a little out of sorts, if you will.
But I took the test & when we looked, there was the " + ". Positive. Pregnant.
Well, now what? I should be jumping up and down with joy, right? Knocking Jeff over with my hugs and kisses?
But there wasn't any of that. We just kinda looked at each other a few times, and said, "Okay. So. We're pregnant. Huh." I saw that going differently when we eventually got this news.
It was just kinda weird. I didn't know what to think. I still don't.
We're both dealing with this (good) news in different ways -- today I looked all over the internet for creative ways to share the news with friends and family. Jeff has been researching plans for cribs. He told me he woke up 2:22am this morning thinking about how everything in our life is about to change. Our world is about to be rocked! I had that same thought in the shower this morning.
I guess we'll just take it one day at a time.
