I woke up way too early this morning and couldn't fall back asleep. I figured since I'm 7dp6dt, I would take a FRER just to get it over with since I assumed the FET didn't work. The second line appeared immediately! The picture isn't great since my hand was shaking, but the test line on the FRER is actually pretty dark - dark enough that if it was an OPK I'd think it was close to being positive. Of course I had to break out the pack of digitals I bought over a year ago to see the most beautiful word in the world.
My first beta is scheduled for Monday, but I'm going to call and see if they will move it up to tomorrow. I'll feel a lot more confident about this once I see a couple healthy beta numbers but... holy cow, at this moment I am PG! It feels so good to be crying about something good for a change.
I'll keep you all posted on beta numbers. Thank you all so much for your support over the last few months, especially since I've had such major drama in my life.
(sorry about the 2 images showing... I have no idea why that's happening)
