Ok, so almost a year ago I had the biggest shock of my life, that would also change my life forever! Erica.....
"YOU'RE PREGNANT!!!"
Now let me tell you WHY I was so shocked....
I was told the chances of me getting pregnant were slim to none. After a tubal pregnancy in 2010, I lost a tube & the remaining tube had some unknown kind of damage to it. Knowing that I would never be a mother & not ever fully understanding one's love for their own child was very hard to accept. My friends all have children and my brother has children.... so I felt pretty alone. I'm sorry, but no pet could ever compare to having a baby of my own.
Fast forward to Christmas Eve of last year (2013)....
I am dating Trevor (who I met on an online dating site). The relationship is pretty new still, having been together for only a few months. And yes, we are sleeping together. So anyway, I was having these crazy mood swings & of course, I was "late". BUT being "late" was normal due to the stress I was under in my life at the time. I was on the phone with my mother after getting off of work one night, telling her about my irritability, mood swings & just my overall nastiness with people lately. Out of nowhere she suggests I should take a pregnancy test. Ummmmmm, Mom, you know I can't have babies so why even suggest that???
I don't know why, but next thing you know, here I am at Super Wal-Mart at midnight buying Clear Blue Pregnancy Tests.
The next morning comes & I take the test as I'm getting ready for work. I lay it on the bathroom counter, going about my business. As I'm brushing my hair I see the word 'Pregnant' flash across the screen. WTF??!!
The seed is planted.
