Current mood: shocked
I was playing with little Mia when I noticed what the date was today and realized it was 1 year ago today that I found out I was pregnant! Wow talk about how fast time flies! Geez it seems just like yesterday when I look back.
Adrian and I talked about starting a family soon after we got married we just didn't know it would happen so fast! I remember thinking in Maui, almost mothers intuition, I had a feeling I may be pregnant. It wasn't like any other feeling I experienced before.. it was really strong. I even hesitated to go scuba diving since it isn't too good to do while pregnant. When I told Adrian how I felt he just thought I was being silly since I had just had my period soon before our wedding. I didn't think too much about it till I started getting stomach pains and feeling sick every other day . Hmmm..... I just felt maybe, just maybe I really am pregnant. I really wanted that honeymoon baby!
Well we came home on a Friday and that Monday I went off to work. On my lunch break I bought a 3 pack pregnancy test. I took a test when I got home (though I was supposed to at least test by that Thursday to get a positive if I was pregnant). The test came out negative... sigh.. I was all heartbroken. Ah well... no honeymoon baby I thought. So a couple of days went by and I retested again on that Wednesday just for the heck of it. Sure enough.. negative. I decided to stop taking the tests since it was just making me sad. So a few more days past by. On Monday the 29th I woke up in the morning. It was my 9/80 so I had the day off from work. I was just about to use the restroom then for some reason I remembered about that 3rd test still sitting there. I didn't want to be disappointed again, but at the same time I wanted that test out of the house since it was bumming me out so much. I thought I might as well take it, I mean they say the first thing in the morning usually is the best time to take it anyways.
So I went downstairs and took the test. I laid it on the floor and sat down next to it and waited. I waited... and waited.... and waited.. then I looked.. sure enough there was that one line that said you took the test right and.... what’s this?!!? could it be?!?! was I seeing right?!?! there was a second faded line staring right at me! My heart skipped a beat I grabbed it off the floor saying "No way! No way!" and looked closer... sure enough it was positive! I still couldn't believe it, so I dug out the two previous tests out of the trash just to compare. Those two tests still showed negative and this one sure didn't look like those! I quickly jumped up and told the cat! Then came the dilemma. I always had this fantasy of how I would tell Adrian when I found out I was pregnant but he was asleep and I was soooo excited I just couldn't hold it in! So I ran upstairs and jumped on the bed. He was there sleeping on his back. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and woke him up. He opened his eyes and I said "I love you!" he just grunted.. annoyingly (like he always does when I wake him up) and rolled over to his side away from me. I peeked over and said "My pregnancy test came out positive!" in an instant his eyes popped open, he looked and me and said "Really?!?!?!" I said "Well I don't know, it looks positive, I mean there are two lines but one is really faded" I was talking a mile a second. "Are you ok?!" he asked. "Yes I am just so excited eeeek! let me go show you!" so I jumped off the bed and ran town stairs grabbed the test that was still laying on the floor and ran up. Adrian was getting up by then and I showed him. "What do you think?!" I asked "Well there are two lines for sure! but its really faded.. so I don't know". "That’s it I am going to Wal-Greens for another one, wanna go?!" I asked. He said "ok" and off to Wal-green we went for another test. This time I wanted to be sure, so I bought the most expensive one. It was a digital one so there would be no mistake. We went back home and waited. (I didn't have to pee right away haha). Then it was time to test again and I went to the bathroom while Adrian was in the living room installing our surround sound system we got for our wedding. I took the test and again sat on the floor and waited for the results. This time it showed an hour glass... I waited... and waited and waited.. (seemed like years) then boom!.. PREGNANT! is what it read! YAY!!! I got up and walked over to Adrian and placed the test in front of him while he was reading the instructions for the surround sound system. He looked at it and said "Well that’s it, I'm convinced!!" and hugged me. We were both so excited and overwhelmed at the same time. I couldn't wait to spread the news!!!
That’s how our journey began. Wow a whole year ago today. Now I have my little Angel and I couldn't be happier! Little Mia, my Maui baby!
