Tim is very busy with medical rotations right now, so we don't usually get to see each other during the day. Luckily, right now he is doing his Pediatrics rotation at Boston Medical Center - right next to where I work! He texted me today at noon and asked if I would like to meet him for lunch. I said, "Of course." We went to the hospital cafeteria, and as soon as we entered, the smells of all the different kinds of food were so strong it felt like they punched me in the stomach. That's when I began to suspect something was up. :)
I came home and took a pregnancy test. Yesterday I was bleeding very slightly, so I thought I wasn't pregnant even though I wanted to be. But to my surprise and great delight, the pregnancy test came out positive! Hurrayyyyyy! I was so happy I cried.
I couldn't wait to tell Tim! But I wanted him to be surprised in a fun way. Sometimes I tease him that he comes home and goes straight to his computer to look at baseball scores, so I put a picture of the pregnancy test on his computer's desktop. Squiggles and I went to pick him up from school, and I managed to keep the secret all the way home.
Sure enough, when we got home Tim went to his computer and turned it on. He didn't notice that I was recording him. He was a little skeptical at first, because we have seen faint lines on pregnancy tests that were false alarms.
But after I showed him the actual tests, he believed it for himself. He gave me a kiss, and every time I saw him for the rest of the evening, he had a little smile on his face. We're so happy! We can't wait to meet this little one!
