My Milestones & Events
On August 6, 2014 at 6 weeks 6 days pregnant
First Ultrasound
So glad Dom could come with me after all. I was very nervous but fortunately the baby is really there, and is healthy, with a strong heart beat. That's all I could ask for, really. Surprised to learn I am only 7 weeks along, not 9 as I had thought... not sure how that's possible, but I trust the doctor.

Told My Boss About My Pregnancy
Told Kari and coworkers as soon as I saw her the next day, as I had missed some days at work due to morning sickness and really couldn't hide it much longer. Everybody seemed happy for me.

First Positive Pregnancy Test
I had been feeling intense nausea for nearly two weeks. When a bunch of people on Facebook + a coworker suggested I might be pregnant, I realized this was in the realm of possibility. The wait to get home was agonizing, then I had to wait for Dom to get home, but finally we took the test. It was supposed to take 5 minutes for the test to process but after less than 60 seconds it was showing up positive. Hooray!
