Expecting!!

We're having a baby!!!!!! Here's how we found out:

I was at home and was trying to decide whether or not to go back on the pill. (I had been having a VERY hard time being on the pill so I had stopped using the pill and we were using something else) I was just fed up and figured the pill was easier so I called Jason and had him pick me up a pregnancy test just so I could be sure because taking the pill while being pregnant is very dangerous. Anyways, he brought the test home and, honestly, I totally forgot about it. When I finally remembered, I took the test and finished some things while I waited for the result. When I went to throw the test away (because I was almost certain it was negative), instead of 1 line, I saw 2!! I couldn't believe it! I showed Jason and he was speechless as well. Still unconvinced, I took the other test and it also came out positive. Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!!!! I spent the next few days in disbelief, but when I set up my first appointment with my midwife, it finally hit me - I'm really having a baby! Jason and I are so excited! The more we look at the baby books and see pictures of what our baby looks like now and what it will look like in the coming weeks, the more excxited we get. Jason already swears he can hear the baby's heartbeat (yes, there is already a heartbeat) and talks to her all the time - it's so sweet! My due date is March 4th - it's going to be here so fast!
