I am pregnant again, apparently.
I went to the doctor a week ago and was one day late. Urine test was negative. Doc wants me to get a mammogram, but apparently not if I'm pregnant. So she says, if you don't get your period in one week, come back for a blood test.
Well, I have been feeling weird ever since. Funny little pains in my low back and abdomen. But my brain has twice in the past decided I must be pregnant and I have manifested mild symptoms of pregnancy, including late periods, so I figured it was my brain playing tricks on me.
But with my period nearly a week late, yesterday I caved and bough another urine test. This one was very obviously positive.
Small Boy couldn't figure out what I was up to. I used one of his plastic restaurant cups to pee into. He wanted to know what I was going to do with it, so I jokingly told him. He also wanted to know what the pregnancy test thing was and I told him to eat his breakfast. Later, he saw the test in the bathroom.
He said, "What's that stick thing?"
I said, "That stick thing is none of your business yet?"
He said, "When will it be my business?"
I was actually ready to tell him yesterday morning, but Husband and I agreed that we would talk about the best time. Husband is worried that Small Boy will be upset if he knows about it, then I miscarry early, like my first pregnancy. In a way, I think it would be good to explain to him what is going on, becuase if I do miscarry, he will certainly know that something is seriously wrong with me. But I suppose that he doesn't need to know in advance.
No major symptoms yet. Just the sort of weird twinges. I would think they were my imagination except that yesterday I was all weird and burpy for no reason. So stuff is going on down there. But no nausea, no headaches, no hay fever, no excessive tiredness. At least not yet.
And that, my dears, is my 2000th post! :) I was wondering what I was going ot do about it!
