To say I was shocked is putting it mildly! Quoting from my journal that very day...
"I took 3 pregnancy tests today - at 5:30pm the Clear Blue Digital read 'PREGNANT". I could not believe it. I was just shocked! I didn't know whether to jump for joy, cry because I was so happy or just not believe it. I so wanted to talk to Christian, but it was 12:30am in Germany and he would not answer the phone :(. I so needed to share this news - I called SMP and she wouldn't answer either. I called my mom who was excited..."
I apparently didn't trust those first 3 digital tests, so I took a traditional, read the stupid lines one, around 7:45pm which was not positive. So at 10:30pm I did another digital one which read 'PREGNANT!'. (why anyone still monkeys around with those cheap 'read the lines ones' is beyond me...too ambiguous!). And I did 2 or 3 a day for another week. I was only 9 or 10 DPO, so it was super early to test, but I just knew something was different. And also I'm the most impatient person around, so I knew I was never going to be able to wait 2 full weeks.
I did finally talk to Christian that night, around midnight my time as I just had to tell him!! He finally woke up and heard his phone :). He was over the moon.
PREGNANT! WOOHOO!!
The last phrase in my journal that night...
"The human body is amazing, but I know without God this never would have happened. He is taking such good care of me. I pray this pregnancy remains viable and that I have a healthy baby. Please let the baby be healthy."
Tate was 9 or 10 days old and on his way!!!

Those first few hours when you find out you are pregnant are like no other hours of your life. Thanks for sharing this special time.
PS. I only used the old fashioned one line/two line tests. I was so sure I wasn't pregnant that I wasn't going to spend big bucks on a digital test to tell me that! Should've spent the money though--I could have had a cute picture like yours!
