So being a bit oblivious, I was 8 days overdue for AF when I realised (last week) and didn't manage to pick up a test til 10 days overdue. I got a very faint line, wasn't sure if it was really there or imagination, so I left it a few days and then tested again this morning... it's definitely positive this time!! I told DH and he is pretty damn happy, but also slightly
while I am mostly terrified! I came off the pill in Oct and we only started offically ttc in late Dec, and we assumed it would take a while, if not ages... No particular reason, just trying to be realistic, as most of our friends have spent at least a few months ttc and I just assumed that would be us too... I was geared up for a few months of trying at least! Obviously I am pleased as well, and I don't want to offend or upset anyone who is ttc, but I am just really shocked about how quickly it happened. Has anyone else been in the same boat? How did you feel?
So now, instead of stressing and worrying about getting pregnant (which was what I was trying to be prepared for), I am now stressing and worrying about being pregnant already (which I was expecting to have a few more months get my head around), what might go wrong, what don't I know about (everything!!), what I should and shouldn't do... I've already done a load of calculations for dates and think I'm probably due late September/early October, but I couldn't get a doctor's appointment til next Monday! That's another week! I've been googling a lot which isn't always a great idea so any steers towards more reliable info would be great... what should I be doing/not doing/reading/thinking at this point??
