My blood test was Saturday morning, but I am in the camp of POAS before beta, so I had gotten 2 positive tests before the nurse even called. My HCG was 93, and today's was 230. Next test is on Thursday. I exhale a little with each one.
I had spent so many months thinking of how I would tell DH, and how he would look - But when it came down to it, the scenario was DH was still sleeping, and me screaming "I might be pregnant!!" from the bathroom as soon as the second line even hinted of appearing - with both of us being afraid to get too excited.
My stay here has been short (although I'll probably hang a few more days as I continue testing), but the support and knowledge have been so amazingly helpful. Often my sentences to DH have started "the ladies on the board say...".
I hope and pray that 2015 brings you all good news.
