Shut the front door.

There is a baby in my belly. I am totally freaked out! I took a pee test this morning (I am pretty proud of myself for holding out until beta day), and it was very clearly positive, which I expected to freak out about, but actually I was super calm -- I think I didn't really believe it. I went in for my blood test and then we went out for an obscenely huge breakfast and have been watching movies all day, waiting for the phone call. My RE just called to tell me my beta is 104 and I kind of thought I would pass out. My progesterone is 114 so I get to stop my shots, though I am staying on Endometrin for now. Next blood test is Monday.
I sought this board out for information, and I never thought I would forge friendships here, or that so many people would be pulling for me through this crazy process. I am honestly touched by your support and glad I have people to go to with all my crazy pregnancy questions...and then all my crazy childrearing questions!

Well, this is embarassing. She was on the toilet.
I had POAS in the other bathroom and I came in and said, "Will you look at my pee stick?"
