Sorry for the suspense

First, I am soo soo sorry I have not posted until now. Thank you for all you lovelies caring so much about what is happening, and wanting to know! Don't know how I would be surviving all this without you all. There is so much more to say than just in this post about the whole 2WW and my downs during it, but like I said I wanted to find out and process a little which is what I did. And of course I wanted to tell a few people (who I also would tell if anything went wrong) and today brought about some clarity to write because yesterday was a whirlwind. And I am still feeling the aftermath. So I am sure you can guess...

I AM PREGNANT

It feels so good to write those words. I cannot even believe it. I am still in shock. But oozing with happiness!!!

My beta was 149. We found out yesterday after work. I came home and J was already drinking scotch to calm his nerves. He listened to the message first because I was so scared. He looked red and teary-eyed so I was shaking my head NO! but then he told me it was positive. And then of course I had to listen to the message. Twice.

And I finally took a home test and sure enough, two lines.

I go for my next beta on Tuesday and I just am feeling good about all of this. I'm not letting those evil IF thoughts or doubts even get in on this. So I am going to bask in the positive. And not predict the future. And not worry for now, what is next.

We celebrated at dinner with a mocktail for me and cocktail for my husband. It was funny because we got a table at the window facing the street in a very busy neighborhood in our city. In the time we were eating, three very pregnant ladies (one carrying ice cream ironically) walked by and one kid had a full on meltdown in front of our window. What are the chances of that? After that, I looked at J and said, "What did we do?" But then of course laughed.

I'm just happy. At least today. I couldn't even sleep last night. Just too much excitement.

I am however thinking of the ladies cycling with me over at MyFertilityBlog and Hope Delayed who have their betas today. A big prayer to you both that today is filled with good news.

And I have more posts this week coming up, thoughts on the 2WW, therapy and of course A GIVEAWAY so I hope you stay tuned!!!

Have a wonderful Saturday!
