Holy crap... I'm pregnant!

Well, I got my big fat positive today!  *happy dance*  I haven't even told my husband... he's not home from work, yet.  I went to Barnes & Noble and bought him an "Expectant Fathers" book... he loves to read.  So I'll be like, "Oh, I went to B&N and got you a present."  LOL!

I'm stoked.  And keeping my fingers crossed, because I know it's early.  And since this is my first pregnancy, I have no idea what lies ahead. 

It's kind of weird because I pretty much know exactly when I conceived.  It had to be either May 19 or 20, which puts my due date at February 6th.  I thought I was just having PMS symptoms (due tomorrow) but my boobs have been BURNING for like a week, now.  Usually, they're just a little tender for a couple of days... but I haven't even been able to sleep on my stomach.

And so, the fun begins!  Weeee!

Thank you!  I'll undoubtedly be asking you a lot of questions, since I'm having a lap-band baby, too!

I am here anytime. Nothing really changes. I did have a little deflation in the first trimester due to all day sickness. Since then, I have kept the same fill level and didn't gave it put back in.

There are several band babies on this board.

Thank you!   You know, my husband and I have only been trying for two months.  In April, I missed my ovulation date (I think we started too late.)  And so in May, I took my BBT every day, charted, checked my cervical mucus, and also did the OPK pee sticks.  When I got close to my O date, I noticed my CM was getting that "egg white" consistency, so we did it every other day until I got my positve OPK.  I actually got a positive OPK two days in a row, so we did it both days.  Then, I had to leave on a business trip, and we didn't even see each other for 6 days. LOL

I know it's super early, so I'm trying really hard not to hold my breath.  I'm excited because before I had my weight loss surgery, I actually had a doctor tell me that I would NEVER be able to get pregnant because I had irregular periods.  So, the fact that I even CAN get pregnant is really exciting.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well... my husband is so, so excited.  All he's ever wanted is to be a daddy!
