Surprise Pregnancy

Valerie • Proud mama of my little bean

So, my man and I have been together for 10 months. We've joked about what our future family will be like, but we definitely weren't trying to get pregnant. It was the day I was suppose to start my period, and I had a gut feeling that I should just take a test. When it came back positive, I freaked out! I was in complete denial. My boyfriend wasn't coming home till the following night. He was on a work trip. I cried the next day because I was scared wondering about how he would react.

Fast forward to the next night. He came home, and we watched an episode of the office. I went to the bathroom to grab the pregnancy test. I came downstairs and told him that I needed to tell him something. I then said, "Do you remember how I told you I would be ovulating during our vacation? You jokingly said that we would just tell our kid that they were conceived in Florida. Well...." Now at this point, he's smiling and chuckling.

I handed him the test, and I couldn't have asked for a better reaction. He asked if it was real. Then, he pulled me in close to, kissed me, and told me he loved me. Then, he said "it's you and me baby" when I told him that i felt scared. So far, he's been super involved. This whole pregnancy is making me fall in love with him even more.
