Father's day weekend Abi left to spend a whole week with her great grandparents, which I thought would be the longest week of my whole life. I found out the Friday that I went to pick her up that the next 36 would moved equally as slow. My little sister Ciara came over to use my shower because hers was being caulked or something, I was babysitting the neighbor girl like I do almost every Friday, and I had all but given up on ever seeing 2 lines on a test again.
So we are eating lunch and out of nowhere I hear "My gaaaawwwd Lacey, your boobs are huge, what did you do to them?" I replied that I didn't know but they hurt like the dickens. So as soon as I had 5 minutes to myself I snuck a paper cup into the bathroom and peed in it. I have gotten quite good at peeing in cups over the last 4 years, although I'm still not that great at peeing outdoors, oh well. I have been in this exact spot a million times, my brain manufacturing fake pregnancy symptoms, me sitting in the bathroom waiting for my negative test to get done processing. So I wait the 5 minutes and then look.....
I was a little dumb founded, I didn't know what to say. I yelled for Ciara to get her butt in there and look at it before it disappeared or went away, and it ended up never being real. As she ran to look at it Alexis' mom showed up and I was a fraction of a second from spilling my guts to her. Its good she was in a hurry that day otherwise she would have gotten the whole story along with a "Here, look at me pee stick!!" But I had to tell someone, I called my BFF Angie at work almost crying telling her she had to come home right away, her sixth sense picked it up and jumped out of the car to hug me as soon as she got home, I didn't even have to tell her, I didn't even have to ask if she wanted to see my pee stick. Only your best friend will willingly hold the stick you dipped in your pee while she hugs you and does the happy dance in the front drive.
Fast forward 2 weeks and 2 more tests, yes I am addicted to peeing on sticks and seeing 2 pink lines instead of one. In my defence though the test lines got darker so they are prettier lines.
second test
Yes I know, I'm nuts! But isn't so cool how it goes from barely there, to brightly visible!
I have been to the doctor to confirm and know that I am 5 weeks 1 day, due March 7th the day before Josh's birthday, which I think is pretty awesome. I'm so nervous and scared and happy and excited and every emotion out there all rolled into one. A big giant ball of emotions and feelings and crying, yup that's me!
Oh and here is me extremely bloated at 5 weeks
