spryngAnyone who doesn't want to read about TTC or pregnancy-related stuff, please feel free to skip this post. I've been there. <3
Sorry to blindside ya'll in the DITL post. I was blindsided, too! Absolutely unexpected, especially after two years of TTC and negative tests. I still don't quite believe it, but the tests keep coming back darker.
Evidence behind cut:
It's still really early and I'm still afraid that this is all going to evaporate or turn into a dream, but I'm trying to remain hopeful. Throughout the TTC process, the odds are against you to get to this point, so it's hard to remember that once you're here, it's more likely you'll stay.
That said, I will breathe a sigh of relief when we do the blood test next week, and then another sigh when we hit six weeks, and then the biggest sighs at eight and twelve. The risk of miscarriage goes down dramatically at 12, so that's probably when we'll make this public. I say. On my public LiveJournal. But you know. :)
I will definitely be holding my breath for a while because TTC makes you aware of every single thing that could go wrong and Murphy's Law has not been kind to us. But this cycle has seemed charmed from the start, so I'm also holding out hope.
Thank you for your kind words and congratulations yesterday <3

Put some crackers on your bedside table and get yourself in the habit of nibbling one before you even get out of bed ;)
