More details
Ok, so Cracker's mom has insisted on more details.
Detail this: I'm so tired. LOL.
Actually it comes and goes and it's currently TIRED time for Reffin. Other than that, I don't feel pregnant at all. One way that this pregnancy is already different than my first one with Ellie is that I don't feel myself wanting to announce it to the world. It feels strange to do that before hearing a heart beat. I wonder why I feel that way this time, but not last time.
Regardless, I have my first ultrasound on the 2nd so it's a little less than a week away. My plan is to get the ultrasound, hear the heart beat, gain energy and then go back to writing cute little funny stories like I usually do. That's the plan A. Plan B is to sleep.
A lot of people know I'm pregnant, especially considering the fact that I don't want to announce it to everyone. LOL. Our family knows. Michael's coworkers know. Mine do not. Anyone who reads this blog knows. My two best friends know. The girl who did my pin-up pictures knows. Most of my friends on Facebook or in Maryland do not know.
But that I'm sure brings up the good question of "How did Reffin's sister respond?"
It was poor timing, let me say that much. The Pin-Up photographer offered to do a session for 9 News the day AFTER finding out I was pregnant. My mom knew I was pregnant because she witnessed me fall asleep WHILE IRONING STANDING UP. So I was going to have my pin-up session the following weekend, and it just so happened that my mom was visiting my sister the following Monday. I did not trust my mom enough to NOT say anything. So I decided to tell my sister even though she was already jealous of the pin-up session. So there you have it. I was a mean sister because I had two big things in the same weekend that she was jealous about.
Her reaction? Her first words were "Well fudge!" Then there was a long silence. Then I said "Are you still there?" and she said "I have such mixed feelings about this." I told her I knew she would but that I knew she would never forgive me if she found out from Mom. We hung up the phone. I went to bed. Then she called me at 6 FEAKIN' AM!!!! to tell me that she was very excited for us.
So all in all it was about what I expected. I just wish I was in a better mood right now. I'm so tired and I can't just sleep because of Ellie. So don't mess with Reffin! Rarr!

Peeing in a cup: Attempt 2
This time I decided I would wait in the lobby for the results. I wasn't going to go through that phone frustration again. 15 minutes later ***I*** get a call from the nurse with the results. She didn't know I was in the lobby. Go figure.
Positive!
As of right now, the due date is October 15, but that may change with my ultrasound. Regardless, that's over a month after our anniversary... so I think we're good! Ellie will be two days away from 2.5 years old (yeah, right... as if any baby is born on their due date).
Not bad. Not bad at all.
Must sleep. Night night.

Conclusively frustrating
ME:
I am now frustrated and inconclusively pregnant.
or not.
inconclusive either way.
GABE:
you should conclusify
ME:
I took a test at the doctor's office because they're free and more accurate, right?
Well they gave me a number to call in 45 minutes for the results. Ugh! I just wanted to know in 5 minutes!
45 min later I called and the nurse said that it wasn't in the system yet and she would call me back.
Never happened. Close of business.
Then this morning I called and kept getting routed from person to person and then back to the original number I called.
GABE:
fun!
ME:
After 30 minutes of no luck I decided to try online only to find out I have to wait for a password to be mailed to me in 9-10 business days.
So I called again. Another 30 minutes being transferred back to the original number I called. UGH!!!
FINALLY I talked to someone who was willing to NOT transfer me, but walked to the correct office instead.
She returned with the results.
Inconclusive.
I can pee in a cup again in 48 hours.
GABE:
sounds like an at-home test would be easier
ME:
Definitely.
I'm getting one tonight.
I'm way too moody and tired to deal with that again.
Don't mess with Reffin today.
but at least I know I can repeat the fun if I so desire. LOL.
GABE:
I think you should repeat the fun.
