There You Are!!!

Those days where B and I were trying to conceive are LOOOOONG gone sister! I am finally pregnant!

I decided to keep a blog, so much for a little diary for my baby and for B who's a million miles away from us (to keep him updated). After all, this is such a big milestone for me and B that I thought it might be fun to try to capture my “preggo thoughts and feelings” in a blog.

M
y family suspected a couple of weeks ago that I was indeed pregnant. I remember waking up on mornings not feeling so great, and my boobs hurt like crazy. I sort a ignored my gut instinct though because for a time B and I have finally given up. Besides, we were too occupied on moving to a new country home.

After 10 days of a delayed period, my mother bought the pregnancy kit December 31, 2007. The whole family was at home celebrating New Year's Eve. The next morning, per usual, I was the last one to wake-up and everyone is already anxious. So I had my urine tested, and clear as it is TWO PINK LINES. So I got out of the bathroom, and in front of my whole family and relatives, I showed them the Pee Stick that will forever change my life.

I was shocked. No words can describe how I felt that very moment. I think every emotion that a human is capable of rushed through my body that very instant. I was so overjoyed and I couldn’t wait to share the news with my husband.



MY HUSBAND!

I had to find a creative way to break the good news! I still have to wait for 7 more hours to be able to get in touch with him through the internet. Husband's time is 7 hours delayed. Finally, when we were able to talk, I tried to remain calm and nonchalant. I told him then the good news, that he's gonna be a Dad soon. It was a beautiful moment between us, one that we will certainly treasure forever. And what does one do in the midst of such a special moment…we freak out! OMG, I need to get healthy food! And LOTS OF IT! I need milk, I need fruit, I need vegetables. So, as the new chapter of our life unfolds, we were both in could 9, dreaming of what lies ahead of us….

We are truly thankful to God for hearing all our prayers. We just couldn't thank Him enough.
