::It's official::

Sunday, February 22 marked the day that I was officially late, so I decided to take a pregnancy test. Waiting for the lines to show up I noticed that the control line was dark and slowly a VERY faint second line was appearing. Questioning whether or not I was really seeing a faint second line, I asked Dusty to take a look at it. He did... and agreed that there was a second line; however, it was so faint we didn't really take it seriously. I had one more test, so I decided that I would wait until Monday morning to take it. Monday morning arrived, I peed on the stick and waited... After a few minutes, once again, a VERY faint line appeared. That day I decided to do quite a bit of research to see what exactly a faint line meant, although, I had a hunch that I was indeed pregnant. I still had not started my period and I was having a few early pregnancy symptoms. Monday afternoon I called my doctor to set up an appointment to get an official pregnancy test. It is scheduled for Wednesday @ 2:00. So Monday on the way home from work, I stopped by Target to pick up a couple more pregnancy tests, so I could try again on Tuesday morning. Instead of getting the First Response tests that were showing me a faint second line, I decided to get the Clear Blue Digital tests. As I was doing research, many people indicated that they don't mess around with the second line tests (First Response) because of the faint line issue, that they would get the digital tests where it clearly shows "pregnant" or "not pregnant". So 3:30 on Tuesday morning comes around and I wake up with the urge to pee. Since you're supposed to get your "first morning urine" on the test, I decided to take the test then. I pee on the stick and wait less than a minute then the words............... PREGNANT................. showed up! After testing for 3 days and agnozing over the fact that I couldn't get a real confirmation, it's finally official!! We are expecting! (I couldn't wait to be able to say those words!!) We are both SO excited. I'll update this blog as much as I can and will post pictures of my growing belly! We still have our appointment for tomorrow, so we'll get 100% confirmation then!
