Nugget!

We're pregnant again! It has come as a total shock to me, though Tom says it isn't really a surprise since we had been trying. We were trying, but I looked at it like when we were trying for Connor. We tried and tried and didn't get anywhere until I went on Metformin. This time we were trying but knew we would have to take a break for timing around Tom's interviews in the spring. So the early round of trying was only wishful thinking because my body didn't seem to be ready and I hadn't started the Metformin again.
Well, it turns out when I did start taking the Metformin I was already pregnant. I had also just put away my maternity cloths and all our outgrown baby cloths. I had had dental x-rays and done a million other things they tell you not to do when you are pregnant. I had even started the Couch to 5K running plan in August. I didn't have a clue!
Connor had been sick and he hadn't been sleeping well for a few weeks and then I had gotten sick. I have been tired and touchy and generally not feeling myself. Then today I was walking around Costco and realized I was nauseous again. That nauseous feeling you get when you REALLY need to eat something. I hadn't been eating a lot - I didn't have time with a Cranky Connor. I was trying to lose weight and with our busy mornings there were a lot of days I didn't get to eat until he went down for his nap in the afternoon. I thought well I had better take a test just in case. I expected a negative result - I DIDN'T HAVE A CLUE!
When I got home form Costco I unloaded the car and then went to take the test. Let's just say the result was immediate. I hadn't even stood up yet. This has got to be a fluke. Come on Connor, let's do it again. This time I watched. The control line wasn't even wet yet and it was positive. Shock doesn't even cover it. It took 13 months with Connor... Holy Shadingy, Batman!
Now we know I'm pregnant, but we don't have any clue HOW pregnant I am. I called the Doctors office today to get an appointment with ANYONE who can answer that question. We'll find out on September 29th.
