Not so calm anymore

But for a whole different reason:

9dp5dt -- Beta 233

233!!  :)

Yes, after POAS I was confident it would be positive. But, somehow I just didn't believe the sticks! 

(The nurse was wonderful.  She was the one I talked to on Saturday and, before she took my blood, she smiled coyly and said "when did you test?  After I told you that on Saturday, right?  And it was positive, wasn't it?  Yeah, it's not my first time at the rodeo!"  She gave me a huge hug as I was leaving.  Have I said how much I love my RE's office?)


First step down.  Repeat beta on Thursday.


Holy hand grenade.  I'm pregnant.

    congratulations on your PREGNANCY!!!

    such wonderful news. now i suggest that you buy a million pregnancy tests and just keep on testing -- there's nothing like seeing those two pink lines to make your heart sing. :)

    i am so happy for you! on the weekend, when i have my one glass of wine/beer (oh how i look forward to it), i am going to have a 'cheers' to you and your husband! x
