IN THE BEGINNING. . .

Having talked about making babies, not just practicing, I informed the Hub one Wednesday night that we needed to get down to business the following Sunday and Tuesday nights.  I did my job and calculated 14 days from the start of my last period.  That's all you have to do, right?

Yeah.  We did the business that Sunday night.  When it came around to Tuesday, I felt so sluggish that I didn't even want a repeat.  Sad?  We'll get to that.

By Wednesday, I felt a change.  My boobs felt like they were stuffed to their capacity with Jacks.  You remember those, right?  Jacks?

The only thing that seems to help is wearing a super tight bra on all of the super tight settings.  Yeah.  I enabled the back-fat to ensure my upstairs-girlie-parts were secured.  It helps.  A lot.  If it gets worse, I think I'll upgrade to wearing a sports bra.  Also.

Additionally, my hips felt like someone had taken a giant wrench and twisted my legs backwards in the sockets.  They hurt deep inside - where continual rubbing just doesn't help.  Trust me.  It doesn't help.

(Who am I fooling?  My boobs and my hips STILL feel like that.)

Fast-forward to two days ago. . . I woke up and peed on a stick.  When I saw the results, I peed on four more.  I'll just tell you. . . I have peed on a stick every day since.  I'm not sure why I expected a different result.  Insanity?  Brick wall?

It is very uncommon to have a false positive.  It is even more UN-possible to have five.  Or, seven.  Just sayin'.

So. . . you see this: 

Tell your Hub.  Tell your Partner.  Tell whomever is sharing your life!

HOLY SHIT!  SCREAM BECAUSE YOU AREN'T SURE WHAT TO SAY!

And then, don't do what I did and throw the stick at your Hub.  It's not celebratory and frankly, you just PEED ON THAT!

Now, you should probably call your OB-GYN.  They will likely make an appointment for you around your sixth week.  They will perform a standard Pap to ensure there isn't anything irregular and then they will likely run an early ultrasound to ensure that your little lump of cells is attached in a good place.  So, let's hurry up and wait together!

REVIEW:  Boobs filled with jacks, Hips experiencing exorcist-like contortion pain, FATIGUE!!  Along with a positive test, it's time to call the doctor!
