Day Two...

Alright, so day two of knowing I am pregnant and my mind is going wild. I may have went ahead and taken two more tests (one more yesterday, and one more this morning) just to make sure I wasn't dreaming. I ended up telling my friend Jessica (whos little girl turned one today) and she was very supportive and happy for me. I know ill be able to ask her questions or talk to her about things if I need to because she has been through this and I know she wont tell any one right now. Billy also told a friend. He needed to tell someone haha.

I go to the doctor next Friday. I hate having to wait so long, but I am going out of town tomorrow and that was the only day Billy was able to go with. I am super excited. I hope they'll be able to do a sonogram and tell me how far along I am. We plan on telling our parents sometime after that. I want to tell them next weekend, but Billy wants to wait another week after that, so we shall see.

I know I'm not like really showing yet, but my pants and work shirts are already starting to feel tighter. Wearing my work pants puts me in a lot of discomfort. I just can't wait till I can tell people at work so I can start wearing maternity shirts and be somewhat comfortable.

Alright that is all for now. Being pregnant is exhausting and I need to rest. Good night!

Positive Test

So even though this blog will probably be secret for awhile, I needed somewhere to put my thoughts.

I took a pregnancy test this morning. Those two lines showed up. And rather than feeling upset,or not wanting this or feeling super scared, I am surprisingly calm and excited. I know it is a bit taboo in our day and time for a 20 year old college student to be excited about a pregnancy, but I am. Don't get me wrong, I am bit scared and nervous of the unknown, but I know Billy and I will be OK.
The test wasn't too much of a shock. I have been feeling nauseous, moody, horrible heartburn, and obviously no period.
It is hard not being able to tell anyone yet. We don't want to tell anyone at work until I start showing because the rumor mill is constantly turning there. I have so many questions. What do I do now? What medications am I allowed to take? What foods should I avoid? Can I fly in an airplane? When will I start showing? How long until this nausea goes away? I have so many more questions and I just can't wait till I can start asking everyone else about there experiences.

More to come soon.
