Jumping on the bandwagon

I'm pregnant! Took a Dollar Tree test this morning and got a very faint line, so I bought a digital and got a BFP!

DH and I are kind of stunned right now, like ok, what do we do next? I have to figure out what hospital I want to go to because the one 2 blocks away from us doesn't do epidurals currently. And I am no hero, I want the drugs!

Edit: please nothing on FB yet :o)

    I know! It's a very small hospital and they don't have enough anesthesiologists on call. However, the head anesthetist is DH's uncle, so I'm hoping he'll make an exception and be available to do mine :o)

  • FYI - my fb post is not related to you or any of the other ladies on here.  I just wanted to say that!

    I'm hoping that they do an ultrasound between now and then so I can put a copy of that in their Christmas cards. We'll tell DH's parents on Christmas Eve, and then we're going to FL to visit my parents on the 28th so we'll do the same for them. I can't imagine telling them over the phone, so they just have to wait!

  • Oh and I'm secretly hoping for red hair too Big Smile

     Awww!!  Love it!  Yes Yes...you have to wait!  You could get Christmas cards for grandparents...you know??

  • Holy cow, congrats!! Where the heck have I been, I didn't even realize you were TTC?!

    How are you feeling?  Might be too early to feel any major symptoms yet (or you could luck out like me and really get none at all!).

    Babies with red hair are absolutely adorable Smile

    my sis told our parents at christmas. last gift was for both of them. of course, dad gives it to mom to open. she pulls out a rubber ducky and an ultrasound pic. mom's up crying, hugging my sis and dad is holding his glasses up trying to figure out what the fuzzy, blurry picture is, lol! great memory :)

  • YAY! NICE!

    And hell yeah, red-headed baby! They tell me we're going extinct...

    We just started last cycle and were of the opinion "if it happens, it happens!" So far I haven't had any symptoms except being dog tired today and yesterday. Thankfully I can work from my couch and I've already fit in one nap today.  Smile

    YAY! NICE!

    And hell yeah, red-headed baby! They tell me we're going extinct...

    I did hear that! I'm the only red head in my family, but I'm hoping I've got strong genes!

     

     

  • I flipping knew it! I am so excited for you Ali!!!! Hooray for more March '09 babies Smile
