Week 5-8

I wasn't too sure if I had to tell relatives and friends so I started by telling my parents. They're apprehensive because it's still early days, but as time goes they're getting more confident.
I've told two of my best friends overseas and we were almost crying and laughing at the same time, it was so funny... I've also told my closest friends at work and asked them not to tell anyone yet. I haven't had any morning sickness so far so I looked just normal at work...

I've had appointment with my GP and she arranged some blood test for me to do. We had the results came within few days and everything came out good. There's only one problem, My GP was a bit concerned about finding an obstetrician for me as my due date is mid-January and many doctors will be on X-Mas and New year's leave.

My husband and I spent a weekend away at Port Stephens. It was nice just to be away from Sydney even only for two days. My husband wanted to ride the quad bikes at sand dunes and although I was 8 week pregnant I insisted to come for a ride with him. It was fun!! I think if the tour guide knew that I was pregnant she wouldn't have let me on the bike... :)

Week 1-4

My husband and I have been married for 5 years. We thought we'd start to have family in the year 2005, and we did!

I've had written down my period due & ovulation dates on my daily planner for the last couple months and my husband thought I was a little too discipline about it. Well, it worked didn't it, Honey?!
I was 4 days late for my period but thought it was just a late one, nothing to get excited about. On Saturday 14th May I finally decided to use one of my home tests. I was feeling tired for no reasons for the last two weeks, and combining that with the late period thought it was time to find out..
It was 9 o'clock in the evening when I lazily dragged myself to do the test, didn't want to get too excited afraid I'd get disappointed... Well, not this time as I was positive pregnant! I rang my husband at work and he proudly told his work mates that he's going to be a father... :)
