how I found out

For a week straight I felt sick and tired and really sore. I had major acid reflux and heartburn. My period wasnt coming and its normal that my period doesnt come on time so I waited 5 days and it didnt come. Just to prove to myself that I wasnt pregnant (since im only 16) I took a 1$ test and it came out positive. My bf then took me to the clinic and that test came out positive too. Its been hard telling family but since my bf is 18, things wont be as hard. He has a good apartment and a good job. Things are getting happier :) and things do get better. Im now excited to meet my little one.
Just felt like sharing my short story.
Comment come of your pregnancy stories :)

we got married, went on a honeymoon, came back, i missed my period and started being hungry all the time and i knew it even before testing. No one believed me and i had to pee on a stick and show it to his mom so she would believe me :)

This is my first pregnancy and I had a feeling I was pregnant because my boobs were really sore, my sense of smell was heightened, and then I was having cramping as if I was about to start my period but didn't.... So the next day me and my fiance went to pick up a couple tests before a stag and doe we were going to. I ran into the house really quick to try one while my fiance waited in the car lol and when I didn't come back out he came upstairs to look for me. I said look what you did while having tears in my eyes and he was jumping for joy! Haha :) a moment I'll never forget, I was scared out of my mind and he was as happy as ever <3

I had been sick for awhile. Thought I had a stomach bug (since I had been around little kids with the bug). Didnt once crossed my mind that I could be pregnant.  My coworker took me to Rite Aid & she bought the test. I told her I didnt need it. So when she dropped me off at home, she came inside & forced me to take it. She stood outside the bathroom door until I peed on the stick. & that's how I found out I was carrying a little angel :)

This our second baby. We have a daughter who's 1. With both my pregnancies the way I found out was because I was extremely light headed & I would faint & pass out of nowhere. I don't know why my body reacts to the first few weeks of pregnancy that way lol.

Pregnant with my 3rd, by surprise at 35! Thought I was done, but God has other plans.Had my 1st at 18 though, so I had a young start too. It is not easy, but don't give up. It is worth it. Expect lots of ups and (really ugly) downs. You are both still growing, finding out exactly what you are about and what life is about. Girls figure it out pretty quick once they become a mommy (or I did anyway) My hubby....took FOREVER. But, here we are 35 and blessed with a third baby!! Oh and, on my 1st, I had told my mom I needed birth control (awkward moment!) and she took me to gyno. Then we went on vacation to the keys, I had to pack my birth control and was instructed to start taking it when I got my period(or something like that) Well, on our vacation I was falling asleep EVERYWHERE! Laying out, on the boat...it was CRAZY. Then, we get home and my boobs were sore as ever. Plus, I still hadn't gotten my period. So, Nick and I went to Wal-Mart and I took a test right there in the Wal-Mart bathroom (ewww, right?!?) Oh to be young again. Lolol. Best of luck to you guys. Pray, pray, pray. And find a great church.

I was bored and took a test and my husband looked at me and said oh I already knew. Gave me a kiss and then got really excited.  

I'm glad your family is happy.
