My 1st baby....

3. How old were you? 30

4. How did you find out you were pregnant? I kinda knew. My whole body felt different that month but I kept telling myself that it was wishful thinking and that I shouldn't get my hopes up...then when I was 3 days late we bought a pregnancy test and it was positive! :)

5. Who did you tell first? I took a picture of the positive pregnancy test and texted it to my sister, so she was the very first.

8. Did you deliver early or late? When she was finally delivered it was two days after my due date, but I went into labour on the 28th.

9. Did you have morning sickness? Not really just an aversion to the smell of coffee, which really sucks when one works at Starbucks.
