Day One


I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was positive. I was shocked. I took one because it had been long enough that I needed to, but I sure didn't believe it. I was shaking like crazy. Should I wake Dusten up, should I not wake Dusten up? I could hardly eat my bowl of cereal. I finally woke him up a couple minutes before I left for work. I told him that I took a test and that I thought it was postitive. He opened his eyes real fast and got out of bed. He concluded that the test was indeed positive, but he didn't get too excited. He laid down on the couch and the next thing he said was, "You need to start working as much overtime as you can." I knew he would say this of course. I can see the dollar signs popping up in his head. Then as I was getting my stuff together, he said, "No more diet soda." That will probably be one of the hardest parts for me. Especially because one of the symptoms of pregnancy is being extremely tired--and I really rely on my diet soda to get me through. I told Dusten that this wasn't the reaction that you were supposed to have. He said, "I know, but I really didn't want a January baby." I told him maybe we could push it to early February. It's just amazing.
That was way too easy. Dusten told me last night, that if I was pregnant, then he was going to tell me he told me so. He's been telling me that we will get pregnant really easy, as in within the first 3 months. He said, look at our families, we're not going to have any problems getting pregnant. I said, that may be, but we need to prepare for it to take longer. But I did not imagine that we would get pregnant the first month. We weren't even trying that hard.
I really don't even believe it yet. I'll probably buy a more expensive test and take it later this week. The one I took today was from the dollar store. Then if it says yes, I will call the doctor.
I can't believe it's happening to me, some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
