It's all about to change....

Wednesday night I ran out of my drugs after taking Wednesday's dose. I'm scheduled for Friday to get my pregnancy test, so do I fork over more money for drugs I may not need, or do I change my appointment for Thursday?

Thursday morning I wake up really early and am bleeding. I'm really freaking out at this point. As soon as I get to work, I email my nurse (the phone won't work until 8:30 am). She calls so quickly after I email and tells me to come on in.

I go in, get pricked, and talk to her for a little bit. We talk about my migraines and how bad they're getting. She gives me the okay for caffeine!!!! She also gives me some progesterone that another person donated (so sweet!).

I go back to school. It's my planning period, but I proctor my tests & quizzes for my students who are in our Academic Support program. We have proctors, but we don't have science proctors. They are not able to reword questions or have memory triggers from what we did in class. It's a tough quiz, and there are four kids I'm working with very closely when the nurse calls. I step outside the testing room and answer the phone.

Nurse: "How are you feeling, Dana?"
Me: "Nervous."
Nurse: "You shouldn't be."
Me: "You mean....?"
Nurse: "Yes, Congratulations!"
Me: cry cry cry cry cry

I'm pregnant!!!

I'm spotting because my progesterone levels are too low, so they added an oral progesterone to my pill collection. But, my estrogen is really high, so they lowered that medicine. That may be where my migraines are coming from since they've gotten so bad.

I don't think reality has set in. I mean, man, I'm pregnant. I don't know how many yet. I will find that out next week when I go in for my "first" ultrasound. So today, I'm cleaning out the home office, because that's going to be our nursery!! We're not moving the furniture until we're into the second trimester, but it needs cleaning out anyway.

Wow, I'm pregnant. Life has changed...
