Got the BFP Yesterday!

It's only been a day since I got my BFP (Big Fat Positive!) pregnancy test. It feels like it's been an eternity already. Since I'm new-ish to where I live, I don't have an OBGYN, and since I just found out, we aren't telling anyone yet, therefore I can't ask for recommendations. So google it was! Google hasn't failed me yet, and I hope he doesn't start now! I researched a couple places, and called my number one choice this morning to see when I could get an appointment. Unfortunately, they don't take my insurance. boo. So I had to settle for #2. Hopefully I'll get a good vibe from them, or else I'll have to return to google. My first appointment is next Tuesday. Why do they have to make me wait so long??? I'm freaking out over here. I haven't started taking prenatal vitamins yet, but I am probably going to buy some tonight. Gotta take care of baby! Oh, and by my calculations, baby will probably be born around July 28th. BOO for being 9 months pregnant in the summer heat!!!


We decided we don't want to tell our families until Christmas. It's going to be sooooooooo hard to keep this a secret over Thanksgiving!! Luckily I think we're only seeing my family, and they're so crazy there will always be something going on. And they're all more anti-baby (since we've only been married 3 months..), so they shouldn't even bring it up. Score! We're trying to come up with cute Christmas presents to give them to let them know... should be exciting! :)


I'm feeling very pregnant today. Pretty sure it's mostly all in my head. I look pregnant, I walk pregnant, and I'm 99.9% sure that everyone I walk by is saying "Wow, look at that fat pregnant chick!" behind my back. Meh. I've already used my pregnancy as an excuse, too. J and I went to the food court for lunch, and we were trying to figure out who would get their lunch first (because theirs would be not-as-fresh by the time the other person did). J tried to win, but I pulled the "I'm sorry, are you pregnant???" card. MAN did that feel good :P And yes, I won. But his meal took the same amount of time to cook as mine did to order and cook, so luckily no one's food got cold. 


J doesn't understand anything going on with me right now. He's very excited for the baby. But that's all it is to him: "Yay, Baby!" I'm the one who freaks out. I'm also the one who's going to have to carry this baby for 9 months, have every little thing I do affect it, to help it to grow into a perfect, healthy baby. He's such a guy. But I love him dearly.


I am looking for a promotion at work, and very nervous that this will affect that. I feel like I should tell my boss now, before he puts all the thought and whatever into promoting me. But I haven't even told my family, so he isn't knowing until after Christmas as well. I figure if he sits me down to promote me before then (unlikely), I'll have to tell him and make him keep it quiet. I wouldn't want to take a position having this kind of secret.


I feel like such a sneaky little sneakster!
