Discovering pregnancy

Becoming pregnant for me was like a dream which you often see but dont expect to come true... you would go out of your way to deny it. I have always been fascinated with children, but to have one of my own ... my response was always "Someday? Yes sure, now...? ..No way!"

So when the home pregnancy test kit showed a faint double line ... I didn't believe it. Did the test many times over, went to a neighbourhood doctor, who interpreted the results as "weekly positive"! Imagine... having to tell your husband, "Darling, there is a weakly positive indication of your becoming a daddy..." The man was livid..... what in the world was meant by "weakly positive???!!!" Well.... after thousands of advices, opinions from parents and sister, I went to my regular gynaecologist ... who promptly removed the 'weakly" from the positive results. And thus, I, was formally diagnosed as 'PREGNANT'. But that, my dear, was just the beginning of my experiences with creating life...
