Whaaaat?!

So there I was, sitting in front of my laptop doing my regular browsing of Pinterest and Facebook, when I decided to make a status update about how I have done nothing but sleep all day long and I'm pretty sure I was getting sick (but determined to fight through it!). Little naive me was so surprised when I got a million comments back about how it sounds like I'm pregnant. Whaaat?! No way. There was NO WAY I was pregnant!

I proceeded to tell Jesse that evening that I thought I was getting sick because I slept so hard all day long and he stood there and argued with me that there was nothing wrong with me. I knew better than to bring up the fact that everyone was commenting on how I might be pregnant-- he would've called me paranoid and a whole bunch of other things. Because again, there was NO WAY I would be pregnant!

The next day, I was exhausted again. I decided to take a detour home from work and stop at the nearby Carrs and buy a little test just to stop my mind from going crazy. I was on the phone with one of my best friends at the time, admitting what I was doing, and I remember asking her, "Is it weird that I kinda hope it's positive?"

So there I am... waiting impatiently for my result. Negative. And I was overcome with sadness. Why was I sad? We're not ready to have a baby! This was not our plan! But I thought I would look again just to be sure.... POSITIVE!!!! Whaaaaat?! I threw the test on the sink and started having a little anxiety attack. I don't want positive (haha- and the roller-coaster begins). I sat there and freaked out for about 10 minutes and decided to go wake my husband up.

Now, I had always dreamed that when this moment happened I would tell my dear husband in some really cute way. Yeah right. I was freaking out and I needed him to start freaking out with me! He works nights and had only been in bed for 2 hours. Thankfully he woke up in a nice mood. I asked him to come see something and surprisingly he got out of bed. He walked into the bathroom and I showed him the test....


His reaction? "That's too light.... I don't think it means anything. Let's just wait a couple days and see what happens." Oh man.

So meanwhile I freaked out on my own for about two days and started researching pregnancy tests. I finally took another test and then took my case to my hard to convince husband. This time his reaction was more of what I was looking for. He was excited!

What did we do that day?
Bought a whole bunch of pregnancy books :)
