Test

I wrote this post the day I took the test so I would not forget the deatails.

  I began to suspect pregnancy when I woke up super hungry and feeling weak. Normally I can just wait till I get to work and eat a granola bar, maybe just drink a Dr Pepper for breakfast or even skip breakfast. But I was feeling close to nauseous if I didn't get food in me soon. I decided to wait a few days to take a test. I had been sick and thought maybe that threw my cycle off. With Sean I specifically remember taking the pregnancy test on a Wednesday after work before heading out to church, so I decided to wait til a Wednesday again.  I'd rather put off the test so it has a better chance of detecting a pregnancy than taking it too early. So Wednesday morning rolled around and while Thomas was still sleeping I took the test. The "this pee stick is working" line quickly appeared and then nothing. I stared at it trying to figure out what I wanted it to say. Would I be disappointed if it was just the one line (not pregnant)? Would I be relieved? Would I be thrilled if there were two lines? Scared? Of course all this flew threw my head in a matter of 60 seconds. Because slowly and faintly a second line was appearing. I grabbed the stick and jumped into bed with Thomas and held it in front of his sleepy face. "What?" he says. "Two lines!" I say. So he turns on the bedside lamp and takes a closer look. My dear husband the pessimist and analyst examined it closely. He asks, "Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure that little second line only shows up if detects something."

And if I hadn't taken the test that day I would have still bet money on being pregnant because I was nauseous and sensitive to smells from that day on.
