Hello everyone, I need a bit of advice...
After four negative pregnancy tests and a lot of symptoms that would suggest I was in fact pregnant I convinced my doc to add a pregnancy test on to my blood tests. (I was getting over an infection slowly so they just wanted to check my progress with the whole white blood cells thing). Got a call today from a doctor giving me some surprising but good news. Yes I am pregnant. I'm 24, my other half who I have spent the last three years with is over the moon.
However its not all smiles and excitement...
I have no idea how far along I am. Everyone said the symptoms were down to stress or anxiety and not to worry about it. I am struggling to work out when I may have become pregnant.
That and this year the other half's sister had to terminate because of an abnormality, the little one wouldn't have made it to term. Everyone was heart broken for her. The other sister has also fallen pregnant this year (healthy on all scans so far and she is doing well) but isn't telling anyone about her condition so not to upset her sister. I don't know what to do, I am planning on telling my family after the first scan. But his family? No idea, do I follow suit and stay quiet? I know it seems stupid but I also feel like this has happened at a really bad time because I don't want to steal the thunder of the sister who is pregnant because its her first.
I have an odd abdominal pain the doctors are looking in to, its getting better but I am worried its bad news.
I know its poorly worded and rambly but I'm scared I don't know what to do. Even though I've been told I am pregnant I don't feel any connection to the little person. While we are keeping the little person it has come as a bit of a surprise as I was using protection, I suppose it did say it wasn't 100% perfect?
Thanks for listening, again sorry for the ramble.
