BFP!!

Never in a million years did I think I would be posting about our BFP already! Thankfully I have been temping and was able to catch that I O'd early this month vs. last month. We hit O-5, O-4, O-2, and O so needless to say we had great timing. I started testing with Wondfos at 8DPO of course that's normally too early but I am not one for patience. I repeatedly got BFN but noticed they were super streaky even when I would lay them flat right away. I had been having some weird symptoms such as heartburn, my  nipples killed me which is unusual and also one night when I went to bed I was laying on my stomach and I felt this tugging/pulling type feeling right under my belly button. It was so strange and I told hubby about it and he was like "what does that mean," obviously I said "I have no idea" but it was different.

After seeing the streakiness of the Wondfos and my symptoms I decided I should bust out my FRER just to be sure and see what happens. So I stuck it in my testing cup, set it on the counter and started brushing my teeth to get ready for church. I honestly wasn't expecting a BFP but I looked over as I was brushing them and saw the second line pop up. Hubby was out in the kitchen so I picked it up and walked it over to him mouth full of toothpaste and all and told him "I'm not kidding right now" and he smiled and I walked back into the bathroom and took another one and waited the line came up again I was freaking out. My little brother was at the house and so that made things a little less romantic but at the same time I didn't think I would have a positive.

Parents to be!

Darker in person

Sorry we look so messy haha we were still waking up/getting ready


So after that we headed to church and I knew I had to tell my mom right away. She teaches sunday school so we walked into her classroom and had my step dad follow and shut the door behind her. I had my sticks in my purse and told her we had something to tell her she started to get worried and asked what was wrong, I of course couldn't find the tests so that worried her even more then finally I got them and showed them to them and she started crying and my step dad said he knew it!

We then went to service and it was hard to stay quiet. My other little brother showed up to church a little bit late and of course I had to go pee so as I was walking to the bathroom he asked said "haha you're pregnant and have to pee" (we hadn't told him yet) and then when I came back he asked me how my Zygote was and I looked over at my husband if he told him and my brother was like "wait, what" so that slipped haha

After church we went to lunch to celebrate at olive garden. It was hard seeing everyone have beer and wine while I had my water but I know it's best!

When we got home we took some pictures that I had seen on Pinterest that I wanted to take when I found out I was pregnant 




The next day (Today) I was so exhausted I don't get how all of a sudden things can change, maybe it was in my head but maybe not. I'm also super bloated and crampy. Not period cramps but just uncomfortable. Every time I go to the bathroom I expect to be spotting but hopefully it's a sign of baby C getting nestled in! I of course took another test to confirm and I have a digi on the way! 

darker today!!
We told H mom and step dad as well at their work, they were so excited and we told his dad and step mom via skype. They go vacationing in California every summer for 4 months so we didn't want to make them wait. We are only telling the parents for now then will make the general announcement when I reach 12 weeks. 

I made my first appointment with my dr today. They said they have you come in between 6-10 weeks so I made the apt for 6 weeks of course, I'm not one for waiting : D Anyway we are so excited but of course nervous about all of this!! Tomorrow marks 4 weeks!
