It has sunk in a little more today, but yesterday I could not believe my eyes!
Cycle/month: 13/12 - We actually have our RE appointment on Thursday, talk about timing!
What we did: I actually took a break from everything this month - I didn't temp, I didn't pee on any OPKs, no chart stalking on FF - it was a much needed hiatus for me before seeing the RE. We had sex O-2, O-1, and O, which I'm basing off of CM and O pains. I actually drank quite a bit of alcohol this 2WW due to my hopelessness about this happening on our own and the holiday festivities.
Symptoms: I tested positive yesterday at 9 dpo. I decided to test because my husband kept telling me my boobs looked huge the past few days and I started feeling "off". I was also in a crazy good mood which is never the case for me at this point in my cycle. Today I started feeling a tightness in my lower abdominal area like I just did 100 crunches and I slept like shit last night. Boobs are sore, but not as sore today as they have been the past few days. It's still really early and my period isn't due until Friday, but I'm trying to stay positive....
How I told my husband: I took a wondfo with FMU and there was a definite shadow but I had already tossed the pee cup so I held it for 2 hours and dipped a FR which was a very obvious positive. I sat by myself and cried for a few minutes and then went to where my husband was and held up the Pura Vida (pure life) onesie we bought in Costa Rica almost a year ago and asked him if he thought it looked good on me

Of course he was in just as much disbelief as I was and kept asking me if I was sure! I showed him the FR and we hugged it out.
EDD: August 14, 2014 (my FILs birthday!)
Honestly, you ladies (and one special one in particular) have saved me this past year. There were days I felt like I couldn't do this anymore and all of you were here with your humor, encouragement, and reality based advice to help pull me through. I truly did not think we would be able to get pregnant without assistance and you guys are full of amazing information and support. I'm sad to leave, and I hope I won't be back any time soon....but more than anything I hope that all of you amazing women get your babies!

My Babies!
