Having been a rebel throughout my childhood and teenage years, I was always the one saying I don’t want to get married like ever and having kids was completely out of the question considering that I could never get along with kids. Yet I was quick to get married having found the man I would want to spend the rest of my life with and having been in a relationship for a while. But even then having a kid was something I still didn’t consider. The whole idea of cleaning poop, being vomited on, being peed on were a big turn off for me and so becoming a mother was something I just didn’t want to consider. On the other hand my husband was great with kids and loved kids and we were giving entering parenthood a thought.
I had just joined a new company and was under training. The training room was quiet a small one and aside from me there were only two other people. I wasn’t really finding it an amazing experience being between two guys out of whom one was more like “Sir” (quiet elder to me and more of the serious types), the other being from a small town and not really someone I had anything in common with at least that’s what I thought. So it was quiet a sorry state until this new girl came in and we gelled like a house on fire. Being married this is one question I think everyone faces – When are you planning kids and I remember telling her how the flush spray was made for people like me and how I would use it to clean baby poop if I ever have a baby.
3-4 days from that day I remember reaching office and feeling a surge of nausea (I usually have milk before I leave for work). One done and I am back to my seat thinking that I might have either had my milk too fast or maybe got food poisoning. After 10 mins I feel a surge to visit the loo to pee and then that goes on every few hours, either I need to puke or I need to pee..
This is when I do what most of us do … check Google with symptoms, and guess what ….
The even funnier part is even though both me and my husband were considering entering parenthood, he wasn’t ready to believe google and go to the medical store to get me a kit, which I finally did on my own and got the results as was suggested by google.. I was Pregnant..!!
