Still can't believe I'm pregnant!

I still can't believe the test came out positive. I can't believe it because so many people told me they took a few tries to get it and this was our first proper try. So right now, I'm praying and hoping that the little one sticks around for the next 8-9 months!
I guess we were lucky but I also did try to ensure I was in the best of health before we started. I'd started going to the gym regularly in Sept 07 and by Dec, I was at the gym 4-5 times a week for about an hour or so each time. I was probably at my fittest ever. I fully intend to continue exercising into my pregnancy but I'll have to tone it down due to my pelvic injury.

My whole world has changed. I'm suddenly aware that another life is dependent on me. I've started making changes to my diet, I've started eating more fruits (wasn't too keen on them before), I make sure I get my daily dose of calcium, fresh fruits and veges. I drink lots of fluids and limit my intake of tea and coffee. I've stopped drinking alcohol as well. That's not too hard for me because I was only ever a social drinker and I'm such a light drinker, I can nurse 2 gin and tonics for a whole night out.

I know that at this stage the "baby" is still just an embryo and is about the size of an apple pip (I can't eat apples now thinking about this!) but I've started to visualise a happy and safe pregnancy, a safe labour and a healthy, happy child. I figured it's never too early to start bonding with the baby!
As we haven't picked a name yet for the baby, we've settled on Little Monkey. Hehe. When TM gets up every morning, he'll give me a wake-up kiss and plant a kiss on my tummy for Little Monkey. Isn't that sweet!

I got a BIG FAT POSITIVE today!!!

YES!!!! I never thought I'd get a BFP so quickly!!! I'm so excited and we're both so happy. See, I knew something was different with my body this month and like I said, my Aunt Flo's never late. I felt all different too and when I checked out the symptoms of pregnancy posted on the BabyCentre UK website, I had 4 of them. Still, I thought Nah... because we'd just started trying.
Bought the kits ytdy and what do you know? - they had a twin pack on sale at a way cheaper price, so I bought those in case I had to retest. Took the test this morning and I was so nervous! Haha! I couldn't believe it when it came out positive!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm dancing and singing with joy in my heart. COWABUNGA!!!!!!

I wish all my sisters out there who are TTC the same luck, hope to hear of more BFPs coming! Keep trying, don't give up, don't get tense and always believe!

Just read: 10 days late and still not pregnant

*sigh* I read this on a TTC (trying to conceive forum) yesterday. Someone had posted that she was 10 days late and had taken a test but it showed up negative. :(((

Now I'm wondering if I'll be like that. I'm only 2 days late, but by gosh, it's felt like it's forever. I know for sure I would be very disappointed if Aunt Flo came by a few days later. I know we've just started trying and most couples take some time to conceive and I've got to be patient but it is REALLY frustrating when it doesn't happen.

*Big hugs* to the poster mentioned above... keep on trying and don't give up.
