Just terrified of everything.

So happy for you!

I'm in the same boat as you. Last week, my girlfriend made an offhand comment about her nipples being ultra sensitive. And I made a joke about she must be pregnant. We just kind of laughed it off and went on with life. Until Saturday when we were at a friend's wedding and she wanted to drink and I said something about what if she WAS pregnant. The next morning driving home, father's day no less, we talked and stopped to get a test with some groceries. I'm stressing out the last 20 minutes home and just want to know for sure. We get home and she doesn't have to pee yet. Finally goes to the bathroom and less than a minute later I hear my name. What could it be. I open the door and she has tears in her eyes. I almost dropped to my knees. I'm so excited. I've spent the last 3 days doing almost nothing but freak out and read as much as possible. We don't have our first appointment until the 7th and it can't get here soon enough. I feel like I'm gonna have a heart attack. I'm SO fucking excited. But I keep having to tell myself to slow the fuck down. To relax. Because it's so early. I want to just scream it to the world. But if I did and something happened, I don't think I could tell them that we lost the baby. I wish I could put myself in a coma for a couple months until it's mostly in the clear. But I can't. And I must take it one day at a time. It's either your time or it isn't. I've been doing my best to make sure she does what she needs to to not make anything happen. We'll both be fine. Take a breath. Step back and just enjoy the ride. I don't have prior experience. But it's what I'd want to be told.
