Ladies thank you so much for your support and knowledge. These past months have been so much easier because of all of you. You'll never know how much I appreciate all your support. So yesterday was 9dpiui and I POAS and had a slight positive. Wasn't sure. Didn't even tell DH because I feared it would turn out that I was crazy or it was an evap line. Today, 10dpiui I took 4 more test through out the day. All positive. I'm so excited but freaking scared as shit. I have suffered from a loss before and I'm trying to not get lost in the euphoria. I'm not ready to move to any other board just yet so I hope you don't mind me lurking and hanging out here. Once I get through 2-3 betas I'll reevaluate that decision. The reason I am telling you ladies about this BFP because if something happens (god forbid) I would want you to know the news anyways. I just feel more comfortable when I can talk about it. I told DH tonight and he's very optimistic about this one. God, I hope he's right. I honestly feel this journey would have been so much harder with out you guys. :)
