We found out I was pregnant on Dec. 20th, 2011.
I was "late" by about a week but didn't think anything of it b/c that wasn't abnormal for me and I was feeling all the typical symptoms. Plus, Will and I had been through this whole schpeel a few times.. the 'I think I might be pregnant... take a test... Negative'. But this had been fine with us; we were not actively trying to get pregnant and had decided we were gonig to wait another 6 mos to a year before we'd start trying.
But, at work on Tuesday, Dec. 20th, I experienced a long and uncomfortable wave of nausea and thought to myself 'this is not normal, um... could I be pregnant?' I emailed Will and told him what had happened and warned him that a pregnancy test would be used when I got home. He wasn't nervous at all. I think we were both thinking it would be a negative like it was the other times. But deep down, I actually think he was hopeful it would be a 'positive'.
After work that day, I went to the mall to start and finish most of my Christmas shopping. I got home at 9 and Will was lounging on the couch with Onyx. We both forgot the plan. I was about to hop in the shower and thought 'oh yea, i was going to...' So I nonchalantly pee'd on the test and set it down, turned the shower on, looked back at the test, said to myself 'no, what?, ummmm?, oh shit'. I put my robe on and about that time Will walked in, asked what I was doing and I was still at a loss for words. He saw the test on the counter and said 'nuh uh, really?' I took two more tests that night and one more the next morning just to make sure.
And that is how we found out about Baby Tucker.
