I'm so EXCITED!

The first thing they did when I walked in to the doctor’s office, was hand me a cup, and direct me to the unisex bathroom. Yuck!

I went, and I did as they said…I don’t know about anyone else, but I always feel so accomplished when I’m able to go beyond that little line they draw on the cup for you—but I digress…then, I was directed to sit in the chair, and have my blood drawn as well.

I was so scared! I just wanted to KNOW!  I just HAD to know!  What did their test say? Did it prove me wrong?  I asked the lab tech---stinky lady wouldn’t tell me!  She said it was illegal to divulge that information!

But it’s MY test! It’s not like I snuck someone else in the room to pee in the cup for me!  Why can’t she tell me?  But she remained firm, and said it was against the law, and told me I would have to wait for the doctor to go over the results with me.

So, I asked her were the results in.  She politely told me, “yes,” as she readied my hand for abuse.

I squirmed. She gave me the “side-eye.”  I giggled nervously and told her I was sorry, but I could not concentrate not knowing the outcome of my test. 

She sighed and gave me this look—like a mother chiding her child.  I didn’t care! I wanted to KNOW!  I deserved to know! It was my pee!

Finally, another lab tech asked me was I nervous.  I told her yes, and told her I was very nervous because this was a pregnancy that was not supposed to happen.  She walked out, and then, she walked by, stuck her head in the room, looked to see that the other tech was not looking, and said, “PSST!” I looked over her way, and she mouthed—you are pregnant!

The other lab tech militant’s head shot around, and she gave the other lab tech this icy glare, and then turned back to my exposed hand and readied the needle.

“I’mma need you to chill before you get near me with that needle, Elvira.” I nervously laughed.

“You. Are. Pregnant.” I ran the words over and over in my head, allowing them to soak in. Confirmed at home, verified by the doctor’s office…Best three words I have lip-read ever! I heaved a huge sigh of relief, and I relaxed my body…actually, I just kinda fell limp, and allowed the blood to flow freely in to the numerous vials..."I’m so excited! And I just can’t hide it! I’m about to lose control, and I think I LIKE it!”
