Wanna hear a funny story?

Some of you may be curious as to what happened in between my last post and announcing that I was pregnant yesterday.  If you've counted the weeks you'll notice that yes, I was pregnant in my last post...except I had no idea I was.  I wrote all of that on 10/16 and didn't find out till 10/19 that I was pregnant.  I guess what happened is I was spotting.  I've never spotted, ever.  Even when I miscarried I didn't bleed till I had my D&C.  So I totally thought I was having my period, it was a weird one for me which is pretty much why I even took a pregnancy test.
After my post I thought a little more about the Clomid and decided that I would give it one more month since statistically most women get pregnant within three months of taking it and I'd only done it for two.  Obviously, you shouldn't take Clomid if you're pregnant and since the bleeding had been abnormal I decided to take a test Friday morning just to be sure.  I was completely expecting a negative, no question in my mind I'd get one line on the test.  So, I woke up early for the gym as I had been doing every day at 5:30 AM and took the test.  Went about getting ready to go and checked on the test a few minutes later, it was faint but there was for sure two lines in there.  I stared at it for a few minutes and thought to myself "there's no way that's right, I'll take another one after eating breakfast."  Took the second one and same thing, faint but two lines.  I sat in the bathroom just staring at them, baffled, for a few minutes.  Jake was still in bed half asleep at this point but I woke him up and told him that I just took two pregnancy tests and they both came back positive.  His exact response?  "Um....yay?"  Yeah, he was that excited.  Probably because he was still kind of asleep and we totally weren't expecting it.  I told him I still didn't believe it was right so I was going to go to the gym then call the doctor's office when I got home to take a blood test.  Went to the doctor's right when I got home, and of course I had to find out on a Friday so I wouldn't get any results till Monday from that.  I ended up getting another two pack of pregnancy tests and took them the next two mornings, still positive.  I seriously couldn't believe it, all these tests had to be defective or something.  Heard back from my doctor on Monday morning and it was true, I was pregnant.
My doctor wouldn't schedule me for an appointment for a few weeks though because she wanted to watch the levels in my blood since I didn't make it past five weeks with the last baby.  Scheduled my first appointment at 6 weeks and I was terrified.  I couldn't sleep and when I did I just had nightmares about the ultrasound being the same as last time, nothing there but an empty sack.  Jake had school so I went alone and felt so sick to my stomach the whole morning, I was so scared.  Thank goodness my appointment was pretty early in the morning so I didn't have to wait all day.  Went in there and got all settled and the image popped up on the screen and there was a little dot/blob on the screen.  I was so happy to see it there.  The tech told me she was going to look for the heart beat and there it was, a little flicker on the screen.  I even got to hear it, I had to hold completely still and hold my breath but it was totally worth it obviously.
It's been an interesting few months but I've felt fine for the most part.  I started to get really tired at I think about 6 weeks and couldn't function without taking a nap during the day, which was really fun with two jobs!  I told one of my managers at my second job that I was pregnant earlier than I wanted to because it was so hard for me to stand for an entire shift.  She was understanding and was all for letting me sit when no customers were in the store but said she needed to ask the owners if it was ok.  Got a call from her the next day and they said it was unacceptable for me to sit at any point during my shift.  Of course, that was going to be close to impossible for me to do most of the time.  They even had me working Friday, Saturday, and Sunday that weekend.  I still sat when no customer's were in the store, a 7 hour shift without being able to sit?  Yeah, right.  The next shift I had when the manager was there, she had still prints from the security camera's of me sitting acting like I had done it the whole shift and while customer's were in the store even though no customer's saw me sitting at all.  They're a little strange over there.  So they fired a pregnant woman for needing to sit.  Good thing I totally didn't care!  It's been kind of nice having the free time again.
I used to feel worse in the afternoons, but ginger ale and food took care of it.  I had to eat something about every two hours or I wasn't a happy camper but I still have yet to throw up and at about 10 and 1/2 weeks, I stopped needing a nap to function.  I can also go a little longer without eating now so that's kind of nice.  It kind of freaks me out with how fine I've felt, I keep thinking somethings going to go wrong because I haven't been puking my guts out like my sister did.  I usually have a slight headache every day and get light headed every now and then but it really hasn't been bad at all.  I feel like I started to show pretty early though so I've been wearing a lot of sweatshirts to cover up what I think is obvious.
That's pretty much it, if you were curious how the past 12 weeks have been.  Thanks for all the support from all of you that have been in contact with me, I really appreciate it.  Thankfully there are people in my life that I can rely on because there's no way I could have made it through the past few years without you.
