A Positive Pregnancy Test

How we found out:

My friend, Heather Ritchie called me on Friday, March 2nd, to inform me she was expecting. I was so excited for her. I talked to her about how I was getting impatient waiting to start trying to have a baby. She explained that a pregnancy test can be positive with just a very very faint line and encouraged me to take another pregnancy test.

That I did. The next day was Charity Ball. I definately didn't want to have a drink if I could be pregnant, so I took another pregnancy test that morning. The line was so faint I needed a 2nd opinion. Andy confirmed it was there, but the line was so faint you could hardly see it. Could I REALLY be pregnant? If so, when could we possibly have conceived? It was hard to tell. And, will the prescription I was taking affect the health of the baby?

I spoke with someone from the Dr's office on March 8th, who told me to come in for bloodwork. This was the 3rd round of bloodwork they had gathered in the past 3 weeks. The nurse confirmed it....I AM pregnant!

We were so excited, we just couldn't contain ourselves. We invited our parents over for dinner that evening to announce the news. Read the next blog to find out how...
