My fiancé and I are both in our late 30s and decided to get a jump on things since we’re not religious and have no qualms about having a baby before marriage. I had had an abortion at 27 and ever since, I have absolutely been terrified I would never have my own baby. We’ve been trying for over a year, and then finally, today I realized in the last week, I have uncharacteristically been falling asleep before my fiancé, threw up once (it was light, but confusing), but then today, I couldn’t stop crying for like five goddamn hours which is WILDLY unlike me - so I took a test; and literally was so pessimistic that while taking the test I said, “why the fuck am I even doing this?” Then between when I put the cap back on the test, wiped, and looked back, it was a BRIGHT blue cross. I mean, it was INSTANT. I could not believe it.
I would estimate this puts me as due somewhere around January. We were both ecstatic and I’ve never been in more shock or more joy. I have dreamt of this all my life. I don’t know wtf to expect, but god am I happy.
