I should've known not to trust Madigan. lol
So, yea. Are you ready for baby #2- Mommyhood readers? Cause like it or not, he/she is on the way! lol
I was at school yesterday and was feeling really crappy. In fact, I'd been feeling this way for at least the last 2 or 3 weeks. Just really tired [no matter how much I slept], really irritable, and just all around "off". In class this week, I was having a hard time getting a good breath to sing. I'm singing a lot of soprano [or high] parts and I need to breathe for it. Tuesday, I had chest pains. And yesterday, I actually had to sit down off and on during class. It wasn't bueno.
After class, I walked down to QFC and bought a test. I figured, "Once it's negative, I can tell my doc that something is up". So I went back to school and down to the basement bathroom, peed on a stick, and waited. I was jammin to my ipod when I looked down and had to focus my eyes on what I saw.
PREGNANT.
This was the dialogue:
Me: "are you...huh? what....omg."
Test: "PREGNANT"
Me: "omg....omg...."
Test: "PREGNANT"
Me: "oh shit. [running around the basement]
Test: "yes, idiot. you're pregnant!"
Me: "what do i do? [still running around]
Test: "call someone....PREGNANT"
Okay, so not really, but you get the idea. lol
I called my sister and told her not to freak out or have a reaction since she was right next to my parents. I wasn't ready to tell them. I wanted it to be somewhat special and unexpected. And since my sister was the first person [after charlie] to know I was pregnant with Austin, it just felt right. She was excited and prompted me to take a picture of the test next to a note that says, "Congratulations" and shoot it out for everyone to see. Everyone was excited. I was shocked. And still am.
Now I've gotta start rereading all of my baby books. This is going to be fun.
I admit, I was relieved that I "wasn't pregnant". I didn't get all wild and crazy on my birthday like I said I would. But since finding out, there hasn't been a moment where I've been unhappy about the recent change of events. I'm excited that Austin is going to be a big brother. I'm excited for the new baby and hoping for a little girl. And I'm even excited that I will be a SAHM for good once the baby gets here. No more slaving away over hot 'spresso macheeens. lol .
But I'm craving some applesauce like something fierce and there's none in the house. So I'm going to either go to bed or send Charlie to the shoppette. lol
Yay.
CONGRATS!! I am so happy for you :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! There must be something in the water because I found out I was pregnant with bebe numero dos last week!! I'm scared as hell thinking about how I'm going to manage a toddler and a newborn next summer. And I still haven't told my parents. I hid my baby bump under an assortment of large shirts when I went down for my sister's bday wednesday.
