It really all started last April

Yes, it really all started last April when we found out we were pregnant! Around that same time, I was seeing all kinds of doctors about an annoying eye twitch that I had and was hoping to have resolved. Because I wasn't sure of the type of treatment that would be recommended, I wanted to make sure that I wasn't pregnant. I didn't suspect it at all, but I knew we had not been avoiding it either. So I took a pregnancy test. I didn't tell anyone, because I figured it would be negative. When I looked at the test, I stood frozen staring at the result. Turns out there was a very faint second line--which meant PREGNANT. I was in disbelief, and decided to wait until the next day to take another test and confirm the result--it was still my own little secret. The next morning I got the same result! I still couldn't believe it so I went to see my OB. I explained to her the results I had gotten from the two pregnancy tests. She ordered a blood test to be sure. Two days later, on April 21st, the nurse called back. I will never forget those words "Congratulations girl, you are pregnant!" I was beside myself in excitement. I found out it was very early into the pregnancy and was probably only 4 weeks along!
