MK and Oveth are having a baby, much to their surprise. We are all making the best of it as MK and Oveth plan to co-parent, but we are beyond excited to meet the new baby!
MK didn't realize she was pregnant for about 3.5 months! She was so sick she thought she had cancer. She finally went to the doctor, who asked if she could be pregnant. She said no, so he ran other tests, which all came back normal. He declared it a mystery and gave her antacids hoping they would help her nausea. She finally took a pregnancy test just to rule it out, and it came back negative.
On MK's 26th birthday, after unrelenting nausea and fatigue and with Mia's encouragement, MK bought 4 more pregnancy tests from the dollar store and took them all. All four came back positive.
MK still wasn't convinced.
She arranged for a blood test and made an OB appointment. The doctor's office would call with the test results.
But MK never heard back. Her scheduled appointment came around, so she went feeling like she was probably wasting everyone's time. Little did she know the doctor's office only called patients whose results were negative.
The doctor prepped her for an ultrasound, slid the probe over MK's belly and announced, "There's your baby."
MK could not stop staring at the monitor.
By the time we all found out, MK was 14 weeks pregnant and in her second trimester. She and Oveth could find out the gender of their baby within a few weeks, so we asked them if we could host a big gender reveal party....
