As I waited for my monthly visit to come by sept 5...she didn't. I'm always on track so I figured maybe I miscalculated on my app and didn't think much of it. The next day which was a Saturday Jesus took me to Red Lobster (I had been craving unlimited shrimp for so long) but I felt like complete crap! I was extremely tired but I had slept late that Friday so just shook it off. As we got there and sat to order I got really nauseas and all I could think about was "damn it, I caught some sort of bug". Pregnancy still hadn't passed my mind since I started to feel cramps. I called my mom to tell her I didn't feel good and she was on the same boat feeling tired and nauseas. That's when I really thought we caught something at her dr visit or store. I still went ahead and ate after feeling better not even 10 min later. Only problem now was I got full after a few bites but I knew it had to have been the salad and their awesome cheddar biscuits.
We went home and still no period but mild cramping was still there. Well after a few days late then in the back of my head I thought "what if..."? Blew that thought out my head since we had been trying for a while and no hope. Didn't want to get excited over a late period just to be disappointed later. I was 6 days late and figured I'd make a Gyno appt to see what the problem was. Took a trip to walgreens just to rule out pregnancy. Took it that same day and confused the faded line for a negative. I was angry and sad that it wasn't a positive. The next morning I took the 2nd test and was more clear but in disbelief googled first response pics. Turned out I had read the test wrong and my hCG levels were really high. I hadn't told Jesus yet cause I honestly couldn't believe it. Back to walgreens we went but this time for a diff test and prenatal vitamins.
Surprised him with a positive and he couldn't be happier. It was a very special moment that night for the both of us I'll never forget. I still didn't want to get too excited since good things happening had been rare this past year. Now all the symptoms made sense and just had to keep it a secret from my mom until I knew everything was going good and give her one of the greatest joys in life, another grandkid!
