It all started with a positive test the day after my 25th birthday.

A cheap amazon pregnancy test stared back at me from the sink of the bathroom of the two bedroom apartment I shared with my partner. I wasn’t feeling well lately and then my period was off a couple of days. I was expecting negative, the same negatives from the past 4 or 5 months that we have been trying to concieve with no luck.

Positive. I was… Stunned to say the least. It took me a good 5 minutes of staring intently to the test to be able to process it all before I texted my partner. That’s how this rollercoaster of a journey started.

I immediatly booked an appointment with an Ob/Gyn (the best I could afford) for the following week. I found out I was 5 weeks in. It was all too surreal and I guess I hadn’t had time to process it all yet.

With the passing days it all came to me… I was actually pregnant. It was happening. And I felt a mix of excitment and fear.

This is how my journey started. I had no idea what to expect but I was convinced I was prepared for whatever came to me. Boy was I so wrong…

In the next post I will share my symptoms and some other stuff that I went through my pregnancy!
