4 Pregnancy tests later and it appears I am indeed pregnant.
This isn't planned and it's kind of a shock considering it is with my ex of two and a half years that recently broke my heart for no real reason this past October. We continued to sleep together occasionally and well, it only takes one time I guess. My ex has taken the news in an extremely mature way and is willing to be there through everything. So that was some what relieving.

Anyway, I guess I'm just looking for some support / advice?
I'm having a hard time believing this is the real deal. I mean, you'd think 5 positive pregnancy tests would make it real for me but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it. I don't feel pregnant. I mean, My breasts have grew a ton and are somewhat sore and heavy but nothing totally out of the ordinary. I have felt some what off in the mornings but like i said, nothing crazy and it could very well be me overthinking things.

As much as I didn't plan this, I am going to do everything I can for this child. I've already went into mom mode and have given up coffee cold turkey (HUGE coffee drinker over here) and begun to watch what I am eating/drinking. My only fear is, I'm afraid to believe this 100% and invest myself when I know that anything can happen this early. At this point I'd only be about 4w 4d. Its my understanding that it's obviously very early so as usual anything can happen. I realize I probably won't feel better until the first appointment where I hear the baby's heartbeat/have an ultrasound. Which is around week 9 i've been told? I haven't made an appointment yet just because I've been busy since and am unsure of which doctor I am going to use. So for now I figured I would ask here for some advice/support/experiences. When did you first hear the heartbeat/get an ultrasound? When did you really feel this was really happening for you?

Thank you all in advance.
