Monday 26th July 2010

Well well well........
A LOT can happen in a few weeks!!!

Tickets have been booked for Sydney at Christmas time - YEEHA!!!!
I just can't wait!!!!!

The builder DOES exist and finally turned up the other day to measure up the bathroom! Now we are just waiting on a list from him before we can go shopping - that should come through this weekend!

Jeremy started his new job today and he sounds happier ALREADY!!!
He was SOOOO ready to leave where he was..... even if they though he was the best thing since sliced bread - he NEEDED a change!
It's so great to see him relaxed and happy.
Long may it last!!!

And the biggest news of all..............

HOLY SHIT!!!!

I'M PREGNANT!!

We are thrilled of course, and still a little stunned to be honest!!
I have my first scan tomorrow, cos I have NO IDEA when I am due, so hopefully they can tell me that when I go in.

1.15pm...... and before that I have to drink 1 L of water and HOLD IT!!
Crikey!!!

I got a little suspicious last Monday morning when I had a shower and my boobs felt like they were on fire!
Weird!
Then, Monday night I realised that I had been up about 6 times during the night to pee.
NOT LIKE ME at all!!!!
So..... Tuesday night, I dug out a test I had, and peed on the stick, not expecting much to be honest.
Imagine my utter shock when a faint positive came up!!!
Jeremy didn't want to get excited, cos he thought that if it was faint, then maybe it wasn't positive at all?

After a lot of consultation with "Mr Google" we decided that I would buy another test on Wednesday, and do the pee thing on Thursday morning.
Well, I couldn't bloody wait could I??
I bought a 3 pack (and an extra single one just to be on the safe side), and did one at work - POSITIVE!
That night I did another one - POSITIVE
So.... the Dr was called, and an appointment was made for Friday morning.
Then Thursday morning I did the remaining 2 tests - BOTH POSITIVE!!!!
At the Dr's on Thursday, I did another pee test - POSITIVE!!
Then went for blood tests on my way back to work.
Saturday morning I had to go for another blood test, and then the waiting began!

This morning I rang the Dr, and sure enough.......... all SIX tests were correct!!!
I'M PREGNANT!!!!!

Now, the next step is the scan........
I can barely believe it all!

Geez....... it looks like I WILL have blog fodder for a while to come yet huh??

Welcome back Joanna :)

  19. Hi Jo, you don't know me from a bar of soap, but I've been reading your blog since probably at least a year before you got pregnant with Rhian - so a long long time! And I just had to say how stoked I am for you, it's very exciting. The last few years have certainly been eventful for you and I bet the next year is going to be amazing. Congratulations! Sal
