So, what happens when you suddenly find yourself pregnant?

It was the Monday and Christmas was the coming Friday. Amidst the last minute present buying and catching up with friends, I suddenly realised that my period was due yesterday. I hadn’t thought too much about it as my stomach had been cramping over the past few days and I was expecting the arrival of my menstrual cycle, but it never came. I hadn’t really thought to test; I just assumed it was my body playing tricks on my once more. But, late this afternoon, I had a thought that perhaps I should just pee on that stick to find out either way. I doubted it would turn out positive, but I had a spare pregnancy test in our bathroom cabinet, and on a whim, I did the test. As I sat there, it was at first what I had expected. There was one strong control line and nothing more. Then, as I washed my hands and picked up the test again, about to throw it away, I looked again. I squinted, thinking it was perhaps my eyes playing tricks, but I could have sworn there was a faint second line beginning to appear. It was barely visible, but I was sure I could see it. I sat in that bathroom for a long while, waiting for the test to dry, trying to control my emotions, should this be just a mind trick. It was there, a light pink line! I couldn’t be, could I?
