And then there were three

November 1st

Today has started out to be quite a day indeed. First I had a restless sleep due to needing to get up and go to the loo what felt like every 10minutes and then it got to 1am and I thought enough is enough. I’m 16 days late for my period which means that I’m either extremely stressed which I don’t feel I am or I’m pregnant (we’re pregnant I should say) and so off the to loo I traipsed with pregnancy stick in hand wonder what I will discover in the next couple of minutes other than sheer relief from emptying my seemingly full bladder.

So as you do I peed on the stick and watched as the urine (ewww gross) made its way across the indicator strip. The control line came up nice and bright as you would expect and then low and behold, blow me down another line appeared!!! I knew what that meant and I guess had been expecting it really. I had told myself I would wait until Friday to do the test cos you never know I might still get my period but then like Ryan said at least then I would know if I was ok to drink or not. So there it was babe that at 1am on the 1st of November I discovered that you really were there! An explanation for the weird abdominal pains the kinda nausea (although still not sure if that’s more to do with jet lag tiredness and the heat.

So back to our room I went thanking God for you. Also eager to tell Ryan that you’re there and yet wanting him to sleep cos I’m sure I’m not going to get too much more now. I managed a bit of rest on and off until about 3 when Ryan woke. I surprised him with the pregy stick when we got back and he was excited. Now we both can’t sleep knowing that you are there and of all the amazing moments and God’s perfect timing that has brought us to this place.

WOW

Feeling like we’re in a dream right now.

God bless you sweet little one. God help us to love you and teach you and protect you. God show us where to live what to do and where to welcome you into this world.
