After three years, nine months, one week, and four days Jeremy and I have finally unlocked the “Pregnancy” Achievement. That was the super secret gift I was talking about, but Jeremy was just too happy cats to not tell anyone and trying not to tell my best friends was hard for me as well. So we decided to just go ahead and announce it. I’M PREGNANT!

Yesterday was my three year wedding anniversary and on a whim I decided to test. After sighing the typical “here comes the negative” mantra that always hits me my heart stopped when I looked over less than a minute later to see two solid lines.

I do believe the words, “Oh my fucking god, NO WAY. This isn’t real” escaped my mouth a zillion and one times. I couldn’t cry or scream or anything. I was just shocked. The only symptom that I’ve had has been sore breasts, but I figured that might be because I sleep on my stomach.

In shock I drove out of town to pick up a digital test in case these internet cheapies were lying. After arriving home and having a near panic attack and pissy moment that Jeremy might have discovered our secret I tested once again with the digital and another cheapie. The cheapie showed two lines. I held my breath and looked at the digital screen fully expecting a NOT PREGNANT to crush my hopes. However the digital screen glowed, “Pregnant.” A delightful half scream of glee escaped as I told Leo, our dog, how he was going to have a brother or sister soon. I couldn’t help but laugh and smile. Peeing for yet a third time on the fourth test my body a wreck of nerves I watched two more lines appear. Diluted third time of the day pee and still positive. I just can’t believe it.

I boxed up all the tests and waited for Jeremy to get home. Since we were exchanging gifts I mentioned how I was the ultimate gift giver and that he’d love my presents. He unwrapped the first two. A game and a movie. I handed him the third box and held my breath. It took a few moments and his smile dropped into a shocked face. His reaction was similar to mine. “Really? Really? Seriously? How many times did you test? Really?!” He was just as excited and in shock as I was.

Today I ran around to a few hospitals to get a verified test done so I could schedule an appointment with my OBGYN. One couldn’t do the test due to not having an order, the other clinic’s doctor was out on an emergency. Finally I was sent to the Public Health Department where the test was done.  This was way harder than it should have been.

Trying to guess a due date was awesome since my last period was April 23rd, but I was negative on May 20th when I got my laparoscopy done and haven’t had a period since. We’re assuming it was somewhere during the last two weeks of June and no later than July 7th since the positive line came up well before the control line on her test. So the due date right now at this moment in time is anywhere from February 13th through March 13th.

I’m really excited and really scared. I’ve decided to give up being a vegetarian because I don’t want to experiment on the Lil Luma or deprive him/her of nutrients when I’m not totally secure with my nutritional ability on being a vegetarian.

I have a doctors appointment scheduled on the 27th to get started on whatever it is they do. Hopefully they can tell me how far along I am.

SO FUCK YEAH GO US!
