This is going to be long so I will probably break it down into a few posts... Sorry but I want to get caught up to today and then posts will be a lot shorter... :)
Where to start?? I guess June 2011... Eric and I got married on June 4, 2011 in Destin, Florida and came back here and had a reception June 25, 2011 to celebrate with the family and friends that were not able to attend the wedding. Shortly after that I talked to my new husband and we decided that we would start trying to make our perfect little family a little larger. We had talked about this before and he wanted to wait a while, I wanted to start right away... I mean, I had a 10 year old son... :) I did not tell anyone that I was stopping my birth control when I did, other than my husband, becuase I didn't want the whole "TRYING TO HAVE A BABY" hanging over my head and people always asking. So, I decided I would stop taking my pill every day and see what God had planned for us. I was very lucky, God had it in his cards for us to concieve without much wait and any problems. Reading blogs of people that had been trying for month, or even years to have a baby with no luck really made me worry. I mean, I knew I was "able" to have a baby, I have a 10 year old son but that is never a guarantee. So, come mid-November I was celebrating my 30th birthday and my mom's retirement - we had a huge party for her the weekend after my birthday. My sister and I planned and did everything for the party so I was extremely busy leading up to that. Everything went perfect and life settled down. The next week was Thanksgiving and as Thanksgiving was approaching I thought to myself - I should be starting my period... A couple days went by and nothing... November 26 - I went to CVS and bought a home pregnancy test. Got one with 3 tests in it because I thought there was NO way I was pregnant... I went out that night with some friends - volunteered to be the DD, just in case. :) And the next morning I took the test. I didn't tell Eric I was taking it, I didn't want to get all excited and have a no. After I took the test and waited in the bathroom for the results I just stood there with tears in my eyes as I watched those 2 little pink lines form in the windows of the test stick. With my son, I took 4 tests before I believed the results. Haha. On November 27, 2011 I got to tell my husband that we were going to have a baby. I told him I didn't want to tell ANYONE until after I had went to the doctor and made sure everything was ok. In my mind I couldn't help but think - this was too perfect, something was going to happen. Well, that evening he went to help out his friend at his pizza place and we were texting back and forth and I asked him if he was ok cuz he was REALLY quiet after I told him. He said he was but he had to tell his friend... Haha. Men, I swear. I said ok but knew in my head this meant his friend would tell his wife so there would be 2 people that would know. Not a big deal. A couple nights later, he had to tell 2 of his other friends. They had to come over and have a beer to celebrate..... Now 6 people would know because they would tell their significant others and they are friends with my BEST friend so I had to tell her, I didn't want her to hear from someone else. This brings our total to 8 (she would have to tell her boyfriend) people that are not suppose to know...
I had my yearly doctor appt scheduled for December 17 so I was thinking I wouldn't have to wait TOO long before the doctor could tell me things looked good so far. I called into the office to double check, see if I needed to do anything and they said they would have to change my appt. The doctor does not usually see you until you are around 9 weeks, I would only be about 7 if I kept my appt. So, my doctor's appt was not until December 29 so I was trying to figure out how I was going to keep my husband from telling anyone else before then..
