The last month or so I have been extremely moody/tired/hungry and I have been peeing like a mad woman. I didn't really read too much into any of it because I was on birth control, there was no way I could be pregnant, right?
Brad kept noticing little things and thought I could be pregnant, he would bug me about it every now and then, but again, I didn't think anything of it! There was no way I could be pregnant!
Last night was a night that completely changed our lives. On my way home from work I bought a pregnancy test just to give me peace of mind. Ever since Brad began saying he thought I was pregnant I couldn't get it out of my head. I got home, ate dinner, hung out on the couch for a bit and then I had to pee. I figured it was the perfect time to take the test (9:00PM) and then I could tell Brad that I wasn't pregnant!
Not 30 seconds after I was done peeing two pink lines showed up on the test. I was in complete shock! How could I be pregnant? I was on birth control! I guess I am like my mom...the pill doesn't prevent a thing! I didn't quite believe the test was right, but I had to tell Brad anyway. He was downstairs finishing the cookies we had made when I asked him to come upstairs. He thought for sure he was in trouble so he hurried up the stairs, cookie dough on his hands and all. I held up the test and told him that I was pregnant - I think his jaw hit the ground. He then smiled and said, "I'm going to be a dad!" and gave me the biggest hug. I was still in shock so I Googled how often a false positive occurs, then about 45 minutes later I had to pee again so I took another test. Another positive! My heart was beating so fast and I was so excited and scared at the same time! This morning when I woke up I decided to take the last test just to be sure...and sure enough, another positive!
So it is official, baby Bowles is on the way!
We weren't exactly planning on having kids until Brad was done with school (a couple of years from now), but Bradly says it best, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans."
