Uh-oh pregnancy

Then in March of 2006 just over two years after we got together I got really sick. I thought it was the flu but when it lasted over two weeks I decided to take a pregnancy test. Just as I had feared I was pregnant as I come out of the bathroom in tears I tell him. The first thing he does is look up at me and ask me if he is going to have to sell his truck. (What a goof ball) At this point we had only been moved out on our own for less than two months. We moved into the upstairs duplex of his grandmothers house, but it was our own and we painted it and cleaned it all up and we were happy. The pregnancy was very hard with lots of morning sickness and other issues. In late March he was let go from his job due to management changes, so that was very stressful. Then to top it off mid-April I was let go from my employment at U-Haul Moving and Storage due to my inability to pump propane becasue of my pregnancy. So neither one of us was working and it was very hard, but through the whole thing he stood right by me telling me not to worry even as U-Haul is trying to fight my unemployment, and he was right less than two weeks after that he got a full time job. So everything went great, except that my stubborn baby wouldn't drop, so I was induced on November 4 and on November 5 after 13 long hard hours of labor I delivered our beautiful daughter, but that was far from the end of that she was taken from me and moved to a children's hospital because they thought she was having seizures, but four days later we were allowed to take her home and she has been growing and thriving ever since.
