I got my second blood draw today. After talking with the technician, it seems I will be able to get some answers, even if tentative ones, on Monday. She told me to feel free to call the doctors office at any time. And if I wanted, I could pick up my test results from the lab as well. I’m thrilled! Last night I went to the Macy’s sale, and picked up a few Maternity tops. I got two which almost fit now…but make me look pregnant. They are quarter length sleeve tees with rouched sides. I also got a pretty white blouse and a nautical blue striped blouse. I can’t wait to wear them! Sure I’m being a little optimistic and shopping a little early, but I have to think that way for my mental health. I just have a feeling its going to be great news next week, and I’m very excited that I get to have my DH home with me when I hear it.
I feel like he was a little cheated because he wasn’t home to witness the first pregnancy test. He does admit that it is difficult to think of the baby as a NOW thing, because he can’t feel it, can’t see it, whereas I can. I suppose that is the special bond a mother has with her child, that is irreplaceable. Though, that isn’t to say that my DH won’t have a special bond with our child. He will. It’s just different. It just doesn’t start now. Once this baby starts to kick, he will feel differently.
