~Weeks later~
My hands were shaky as the two red lines stared back at me.
I clasped my free hand over my mouth as the tears of relief flowed down my cheeks.
Finally.
After months of trying. I was finally pregnant.
It felt surreal. Like a dream or an out of body experience. That was the best way to describe it.
The trip to the Maldives definitely paid off. So all actually needed was a change of environment and for my body to be a little more relaxed to take in and here we were.
I couldn't wait to tell Donna Carmela that our plan was already in motion.
I was already out of my bathroom when I paused.
Placing my left palm over my flat belly, I let the reality hit me. I was really carrying a baby - a life - inside of me now, if those three used DIY test kits I used to be sure I was not hallucinating, were anything to go by.
