The day you found out you where pregnant, your stories pls?

Question

i am interested on how you all found out , if you had been trying and what it was like.

Answer 1

We had been trying but I was only one week late. I had a fever and just didn't feel good but I didn't think that I could possibly get pregnant so soon. It wasn't until one of my co-workers suggested I might be pregnant that it dawned on me. So I went home and took a test and it came out positive, but I didn't believe it. So I took another one (I bought a 2 pack!) when that one came out positive I started to believe it. On the way to work the next morning I stopped and bought another one, positive too. So I made an appointment for the ob/gyn to get a blood test. I was going to keep it to myself (and a few co-workers who knew) but my mom was the phlebotomist at the clinic that day and she drew my blood. It wasn't until I went in for an ultra sound at 5 months that I found out I was having twins!

Answer 2

Answer 3

My boyfriend at the time ( now husband ) have been dating since we were 17. He was told a few years ago that he was sterile and wouldnt be able to have kids. We just never used protection. Back in March I realized that my period was late. Didnt think much of it. We went to take a pregnancy test anyway. Came up positive. It was also taken on my 25th Birthday. Best Birthday present ever.  

Answer 4

My first pregnancy, which ended up miscarrying, happened when I was 16 and me and the father had just broken up. We'd used a condom and I was on birth control and I loved him very much (we're back together now possibly pregnant again!). I was terrified when I realized I only wanted cheese nips for breakfast and was 2 months late on my period. I went to a Big Y grocery store and took the test in the bathroom and it was positive... very bright, clearly pregnant. I was excited and miserable at the same time. I never paid for the test.

Answer 5

the first time, i had a feeling i was, took the test a week and 1/2 before i had planned to, because i couldn't wait any longer. i was kinda in shock because at first it looked - and then i looked back down and a second line was starting to show. this last time, i freaked out and called one of my friends crying harder then i think ive ever cried. i was taking the test to prove to myself that i wasn't and when it said "Pregnant" i almost lost my mind. while on the phone i did the second test and again "Pregnant". after some time i calmed down and dealt with it. I'm so excited now! neither time was planned, the first time me and her father kinda knew it was coming, this time i was on the pill and was not expecting it at all.

Answer 6

I'm very irregular and have thought (and hoped) that I was pregnant many times in the past because my period was so late. So many times in the past I had had my heart broken because I thought I was pregnant and then my period would always come! My husband and I weren't actively trying but we weren't trying to prevent it either. One day I was a couple of days late, but again, that wasn't abnormal for me. I remember driving down the road talking to my husband and I told him I was late. He knew what I was getting at and he told me not to get my hopes up again because I wasn't pregnant. I agreed and we dropped the subject. That night he had to work a 12 hour night shift and I didn't have to work the next morning due to a holiday. Around midnight I just got the urge to buy a pregnancy test. So off I went to the local Wal-Mart and bought a 2 pack. As soon as I got home I took one and I got a positive result immediately. I honestly thought I was seeing things. I called my sister because I was unable to call my husband and she was in disbelief as well. She advised me to take the second one and it showed up just as quickly and dark as the first one. I had to wait until 6:30 AM to share the news with my husband. That was the longest, most restless night I've ever had. I'm now 18 weeks and can't wait until our little guy/gal is here!

Answer 7

i was in denial as i have pco and a bicornuate uterus, i was told i couldnt have kids so even though we were trying i still didnt think it would happen. my partner knew before me lol. i had an implantation bleed which made me suspicious so i done a test and it showed up a line straight away. i was almost 5 weeks at the time. it was the best thing in the world as i didnt think i could get pregnant and wed only just started trying, im now 22 weeks with my little girl and couldnt be happier.

Answer 8

Well, I was diagnosed with endometriosis 12 years ago and had accepted that like many other women with the disease I wouldn't be able to get pregnant or to sustain a pregnancy. So I was VERY surprised on 2-28-08 when I took two home pregnancy tests- after a week late on my period- that both came up positive!

I completely freaked out! I couldn't stop sobbing or staring at the tests on the edge of the bathtub. I just sat in my bathroom on the floor rocking. I called my boyfriend, but he was at the gym and didn't answer. So  I called my best friend. She dropped everything and came over. I was supposed to go over my parents house that night, so she went with me and I just told them right away. Finally my boyfriend called back and he couldn't believe it either!

When we got serious in our relationship we went to the doctor and got STD checked. We weren't using condoms, he was just pulling out and we tried not to have s*x at all when I should have been ovulating. In other words, we were being cautious, but not taking any precautions.

I'm due on Halloween and I'm having a baby boy. Our families are both so excied and so are all our friends. They already have kids. I'm still a little scared, but he's thrilled. I'm sure the fear will subside after I look into his sweet little face, though.  

Answer 9

My husband and I had been trying without success for two years- ten times during those years I had pregnancy symptoms and took a test, only to get a negative. So, I was determined not to get my hopes up too much. Besides, my period was very irregular, so it was hard to know when it was supposed to start.

I was away on business and found that I was extremely tired in the evenings. My nipples were itchy, and I kept thinking my period was about to start because I had this thick white discharge. The most interesting thing was that my temperature stayed high (I was charting). I was trying not to get excited, but I went home and told my husband all about it- he was even more cautious than me and didn't believe I could be pregnant.

We went to the supermarket on the Saturday (five days after my period should have started) and bought a digital test- while we were standing in line, the woman in front of us had a baby in her trolley that was screaming and screaming and we just looked at each other and started laughing- it was like the "be careful what you wish for" moment.

I went home and was playing around with the test- I intended to take it the next morning- and just after I turned it on I read the instruction that said it had to be taken immediately after opening. Argh! So I ran to the toilet and peed on the d**n thing right there and then, then set it down and waited. In less than a minute it came up with "Pregnant". I was so shocked, I was shaking like a leaf and instantly bawling my eyes out. I ran out to the kitchen where my husband was still unpacking groceries and shoved the test at him. He gave me a hug and said "It's OK, we'll just try again next month" (thinking that I must be upset because it was yet another negative). I waved it at him until he actually read it, and he finally got it.

He was so shocked he kept on unpacking groceries for a minute, and then we both sat on the sofa and cried for a while. It was awesome. And still is- we're now 28 weeks pregnant and know we're having a girl. We can't wait to meet her.  

Answer 10

i was at work and i really didn't think that i was pregnant. i didnt have any symptoms, just really bad itchy nipples. so i went on my break and for a laugh i took a test. to my surprise it was positive!
