Findding out I was expecting again

March 2009 was an eventful month, some memories I want to keep forever, others I wish they never happened.

At the begining of March I finished up working as a GP's Receptionist, my contract had ended and I was going in for surgery soon, I had been waiting for this surgery for 3 1/2 years, I was going in for a breast reduction and I was so excited and couldn't wait.

I was admitted to hospital on 12th March and on Friday the 13th March I had my reduction, my breast were made smaller from a 32J to a more manageable and nicer 34C/D. I had 1kg of tissue removed from each side. I had bleeding problems during my surgery and became really anaemic so a week later when my period didn't arrive I never thought anything of it. On Thursday 26th March 2009, my step-brother was rushed to hospital in cardiac arrest after experimenting with drugs and overdosing, I went to visit him on the Friday 27th March, he was still alive but in a comma and the doctors were performing tests on him, it was the last time I was to ever see him alive, the following day the tests reveiled that he was brain dead, he left this world aged 23 on Sunday 29th March 2009.

After I had visited Sean in the hospital on the Friday night, me and Chris went to tesco to pick up a few things, my period was now 6 days late so I picked up a test, still never thought there was any chance I was pregnant and that it wasn't here due to the blood I lost during surgery and because I was anaemic. When we got home I decided to do the test, joking to Chris that I would have his privates if it were positive!

Well, the test was positive, I could barely speak and we left the shopping sitting to buy more tests and check. The next test didnt work so later that night with the third test stick in hand I done another, there was no not beliving it this time, it was there in black and white, PREGNANT 3+WEEKS!!!

To say I was shocked was an understatement, it took me ages to get my head around it, Chris seemed to accept it quicker than me, my head was all over the place at the time due to what was going on with Sean, at the moment the test proved positive I knew then that he wasnt going to make it as well.

I was not recoverying from major surgery, grieving my dead step-brother and dealing with the fact I was having another baby! If that was only 1 month what would the next 9 months have in store!!!!
