us as parents???

this was written on the 5th of April 2015

today is Good Friday and we've decided a few days before that we'll do the pregnancy test today. we've done tests a few times before just cuz i missed my period. but we kept forgetting that whenever i'm stressed, it affects my period. so we were quite used to seeing just 1 line and usually a few days after the test, my period comes. so when we decided to take the test this time, we weren't expecting much. but i've noticed a few changes with my body recently but yet i don't experience the "full" force of pregnancy symptoms so still a bit skeptical. however, because i haven't been well (flu and cough), we decided it was due to that

come this morning, we had 1 last pregnancy test left. did the usual thing that you would need to do with the test. the instructions was very specific and mentioned that it should only be 5 seconds long (bold and underlined for effect). the husband told me to stop at 6 seconds and i was pretty sure we messed up the test. slowly but surely 1 line slowly crept up and i was so sure that was just it. since we were so used to seeing only 1 line. but suddenly i saw another really really really light line which grew darker pink as time passed. i sat there and stared at it with disbelief. i kept saying "oh my goodness dear! oh my goodness dear!" and the hubs being the hubs didn't believe me (since i love playing pranks on him). he kept saying "are you serious? don't play ah"

we just couldn't belief it.

we decided that we would just go to the chemist and get another test. since it's the long weekend, we were afraid that nothing will be opened and we would have to wait till tuesday to make a doctors appointment. but thank God the chemist was opened. i asked the pharmacist whether i would've to wait till the next morning since i did 1 test already and it was positive. she said just get 1 to try again and you can do it any time since you've already done one but usually there's not false positive, only false negative. we both stared at each other with this goofy, toothy grin. haha so off we bought another test and couldn't wait to go home to try.

the results for the 2nd test came even faster than the 1st one and the lines were even darker. maybe their recommendation of the 1st morning pee isn't very accurate haha so this time we were positive that WE'RE PREGNANT!!!! 

but just waiting to set a doctors appointment to really really confirm it. so it's gonna be quite hard a secret to keep from our family and friends.

will update this once we've seen the doctor!!!



the first test
