We found out last Friday that we were pregnant with our first. I'm 5w1d today and sitting at the lab waiting to get my second HCG blood test to see how much is changed.

All I keep thinking about is how lucky I am. Not just to be pregnant, but this was our very first month trying. I went off the pill after 15 and a half years at the end of July.

I'm also terrified, like all new mothers I'm sure. I alternate between worrying about miscarriage, the ultimate health of my baby when they're born and telling myself not to stress because it's not good. I question every little thing that does or does not happen too. "Is that normal?" "I don't have that symptom yet, is there something wrong?" LOL it never ends.

Did anyone else manage to get pregnant the very first try?
