On February 14th, I was scheduled for my annual pap smear. Each year I dread going to get a pap smear, but I understand its importance and why every woman should have one. The morning of my pap smear, I started spotting. I figured maybe my period just started a bit early, which never happens (red flag 1). I’m usually pretty accurate with my cycle.
I called to reschedule my pap smear for the following week. Later that day, the bleeding stopped which I found very odd (red flag 2). Normally, when my cycle starts she comes in full force. I remember reading a while ago that if you were pregnant you would have a positive ovulation test. As I like to track my ovulation, I had a few ovulation sticks and decided to test out this theory. I peed on the stick and it was immediately positive. I slightly freaked out because there was a chance this could be false. The worst feeling is giving yourself false hope. I decided to wait until my husband got home to actually try a pregnancy test.
When my husband got home, I asked him to go get a test from the store. He was hesitant as we didn’t want to get our hopes up based on a google theory about positive ovulation test. I explained how my cycle is never early and I never spot and then stop, as these things have never happened to me before. He left to get the test and it felt like I was waiting for ages for him to come back. The moment he got back, I went straight to the bathroom to pee. I set the test on the windowsill and told my husband that he had to check as I was too nervous. I think it said to wait 2 minutes for the result. After two minutes he went to check and there it was our positive pregnancy test!
All I could do was cry… I didn’t know how else to express my emotions. We hugged for what seemed like a lifetime. I couldn’t believe I was actually pregnant. I understood that anything can happen from February until 9 months later and wanted to just take it day by day.
So I’m pregnant…Now what…
