What is your first pregnancy story like? were you shocked, overjoyed, indifferent,..?

I was completely freaked out when I found out about my first. I was un-wed, and only 20 years old. My family is catholic and this was a big no-no in our family. When my mothr found out she was preggo with me, she was also un-wed and only 18 years old. My family almost sent her away to have me "in private" as to avoid shame upon the family. She was disowned and sent packing...thank GOD she decided to keep me! I was horrified when it happened to me, although I was a little older. I remember strategically telling my mother while she was driving a car because I thought she'd have to maintain her cool with me to avoid wrecking! As far as symptoms, I took a HPT because I was having alot of pain and was a few days late. I looked at the test and sheer panic set in. Al in all, it turned out just fine...my mother and my son are the best of friends now, and the shared experience between her and I brought us closer as well!
