Positive...

I've been thinking positive and reflecting on our trials & tribulations of last month. I know that things happen for a reason. We were not meant to get pregnant last month. However, we both had faith and didn't give up. We listened to the doctors, and even took some painful medication. In the end, it's all worth it.

It's all worth it, because today (3 days before my official blood test), I took a HPT (Home pregnancy test). And this was the result...






I felt pregnant before today and I definitely had some pregnancy symptoms (breast tenderness, tired, & cramping). But I was hesitant to take a HPT before my appt on Thursday. I didn't know if my hCG injection would still be in my system and affect the tests. For some reason, I felt weird on Saturday, so I decided to risk it and take a test. I got a very faint line and didn't know what that meant. Most websites said that even a faint line should be considered to be positive. But it was SOO faint. I took one each morning on Sunday & this morning and the line got a bit darker. The faint line wasn't sitting well so I needed to take another test. Good thing I stocked up on tests.

Well, I got the most positive result I've ever gotten. Now I can't wait for my blood test on Thursday. The next step if everything is correct, is trying to decide when to tell our parents. And even though it's best to air on the side of caution, I really want to tell them so they can enjoy this with us.

We'll see what Dan thinks...but keep thinking positive baby thoughts!
