I woke up in bed, and thought this is a new beginning for him and I. I could smell him making breakfast. I got up and took a hot shower so I could join him but I could already hear his foot steps as he comes in to join me. I kiss him and we are both happy. For the first time in my life, I believe I am happy and decide to make life some life decisions. I decide to quit my job to go take a big step in life and start looking for a career. I am unemployed and planning to look for a career and go back to school. We initially started off on the wrong foot and went to being a fling to something a little more meaningful. I fell in love with him and the life I could picture us having in the future. Unfortunately he was still going through a bad divorce and even though him and his ex had been separated for more than a year, he still had to comunicate with her because of their three year old daughter. One day I felt my stomach cramping more than usual. I had just switched birth control so I thought maybe it's just that time of month. I ended up getting sick and decided to get a pregnancy test at Planned parenthood, I decide to go by myself because I don't want anyone to know unless it is something I considered. The nurse then informs me it is positive. I have a rush of emotions flow through me, happiness, sadness, fear and anger at myself for not being as safe as if hoped. I then become nervous to tell him and told myself I have to. I drove up to his house and he was there with his ex. I thought to myself, I have never met her and it was late for her to be here. She left in a hurry. He then told me that things are delaying with their divorce. That she still wants to work things out and he seemed confused on who to choose. I told him I was pregnant and had been for 6 weeks. He told me we would think things over but I was stuck, I had given so much up to start a life with him and knowing he didn't stand on our side, I didn't want him in my life anymore. I said prayers for things to fall into place and I know God works in mysterious ways. It was hard for me to come up with the decision. I had no job, no spouse, no place of my own. I felt I made the best decision for the situation I was in. I am feeling very emotional at the moment but look forward to waiting for marriage to conceive a baby, until then I recieved the birth control implant.

My experience was good for the situation. I honestly wouldn't have made it through it if it wasn't for this kind nurse that helped me through the pain of the surgical procedure. I didn't take the sedation part of it, she held my hand as the cramping got worse and as she could see the emotions, she stayed by me.
