Hello All. Long time lurker, first time poster. 
I'm a 26 year old female currently working as a medical receptionist at an OBGYN office. DP is 24 and we have been together for 5 years now.
Yesterday I got my first BFP in about 90 seconds and went out to buy 2 more digital tests, because I couldnt believe it. All positive. We werent trying to get pregnant, but its a blessing nonetheless. We've talked about children in our future, just didnt expect it to happen so soon!
The only real thing prompting me to test was that my nipples have been super sensitive for the past week or so. Ive had this happen for a day or two around my period, but never had it last this long!
My LMP was somewhere around St. Patricks Day, and I had nice EWCM around March 29th-ish. Based on that, Im guessing Im due somewhere around late December/early January.
My head is spinning with the recent revelations. Its so crazy to be over the moon and yet so scared at the same time. Working where I do allowed me to tell my midwife no more than 12 hours after I found out. Shes so great. I asked her to order serial labs for me (mostly for peace of mind) and had my first draw today. Even though we arent open on Saturdays she said she would call me with the results.
Its so overwhelming! I feel like I should be researching on 20 million different things but have no idea where to start!
Thankfully Ive already built up a medium-sized stash of cloth. That will be a huge help. Ive also looked into info on vaccines, babywearing, cosleeping, breastfeeding, etc. I feel very *in tune* with a lot of the ideas of attachment parenting. Guess it will be interesting to see how it goes as I put it all into play.
