4 weeks

Today (8/30) I am 4 weeks and 1 day. I called the doctor to make an appointment. My OB that I usually see is not doing OB anymore, but still doing GYN. There is a new doctor in her office – I can't remember her name – but I am seeing her tomorrow morning at 11:30. Jeremy is excited and wants to come with me. He has the day off and plans on meeting me there.

It is so hard keeping this a secret – I want to just tell everyone, but then I think that it is better that I wait. I think everyone will be excited for us. One of our good friends has been trying for a while, about 4 months and she is not pregnant yet. I feel bad for when we have to tell her. I also have a co-worker that has been trying for years, and nothing yet. I know they will be happy for us. I think a good friend of mine has an idea that we are pregnant, but hasn't come right out and asked yet. We have been on the same cycle for a while and she started on Friday and knows that I was supposed to start on Sunday. She asked me this morning if I had started yet, or felt like I was going to and I just told her no but I've usually started a day or two after I'm supposed to. It's a good thing we have our appointment tomorrow.

I'm still working out, not having any problems with that. Mainly, I feel tired and in the afternoon, I seem to drag a little bit. I feel like I need a caffeine pick me up, but haven't been drinking soda for a long time. I've now given up coffee and mainly drinking tea, lemonade and water.

I've talked to my mom almost every day since I found out, and she's really excited. She is in Florida right now, but plans on coming to OK hopefully a few times before I give birth!

A better picture of the positive test!
