When we found out.

I guess I should start by writing a little bit about how I felt when I found out I was pregnant. My husband, Brett, and I had been trying for a little over a year to get pregnant. And by trying I mean, no forms of birth control and focusing more around the times that I could be ovulating. Unfortunately I am not the lucky recipient of a normal 28 day cycle. My period had a mind of its own, and that makes planning on when to conceive each month very difficult. I had talked to a friend about taking ovulation tests to see if that would help pinpoint ovulation, but trying that for a couple months never seemed to work....OR SO WE THOUGHT.
The month of November, I was taking ovulation tests and we were having sex about every other day during that time, but the ovulation tests came up negative every time as usual. It was to the point where after all the hustle and bustle of the holidays were over I was going to get on some sort of pill that would help me Ovulate. In putting everything in the back of my mind for the next month, I stopped concentrating on my period and pregnancy. The first week in December hit and I noticed that I was having another long period. I had had a 40 day delay in my period the previous month so I really didn't think anything of it, but for some reason, I woke up on Sunday December 6th and decided to take a pregnancy test.
I was so use to seeing only one line show up, meaning the test is negative, so when both lines appeared I was in complete shock. I stood there for a second, then ran to grab another pregnancy test. That one came out positive too! I could not believe it. 3 or 4 minutes passed and then it hit me. Tears came pouring out and all I could think about was telling Brett, so I ran downstairs to where he was on the couch. He told me later that he thought someone had died when I came down the stairs, looking the way I did. I curled up to him on the couch and pulled out the test, and we both looked at eachother and cried. We both couldn't believe it was our turn to be parents! That Sunday, and every Sunday after we look at all the cute babies at church and can't wait till the little one comes out!
