...fast forward 4 years...
In January of 2018 I started having some weird symptoms: pelvic pain, weird bleeding, tenderness in my abdomen. So I went to get it checked out. After a normal pap, and a physical exam by an Gynecologist, they discovered there was a mass in my pelvis near my left ovary but not connected to anything. It was about the size of my fist (9cm/6cm/3cm). After bloodwork, two ultrasounds, and an MRI, and one round of antibiotics the mass disappeared as easily as it came. Also, it took with it, our birth control.
So, like the responsible people we are, we decided to recoup some of the money we spent on the pelvic mass and wait to seek out further permanent birth control. And that worked...until it didn't.
In July I knew my ovulation would fall close to our 10th anniversary, but I carefully tracked it and thought we would be 3-4 days in the clear. Turns out, I was wrong.
I found out I was pregnant in early August and proceeded to sit in my closet with the pregnancy test and curse. Then I texted my friend Jodi, who was overjoyed (more cursing) and sent Trevor a photo of the positive pregnancy test while he was at work...(oops).
