Is it for REAL for real?


After struggling to conceive for 15 months, taking clomid, undergoing IUI, numerous bloodtests, countless wand ultrasounds and a surgery-I have a hard time believing that those two lines on the test are real. It literally has not hit me. Well, the extreme waves of nausea have. But I am loving it as I am hopeful it is a sign of a strong viable pregnancy. Above are my tests from Thursday, 2/5/09 on 11 days past ovulation. (PS did I mention I ovulated on my OWN? No nasty meds. Dr. R is my hero =)

I went to the Nurse Practitioner today to check my Beta HCG levels to make sure it is normal. I wasn't expecting her to go into lots of details and congratulate me and call me a "success story." She couldn't wait to tell Dr. R. Even the lab tech gave me a hug. Awww.

I haven't told A yet. He will be home in an hour and I will tell him then. I bought a little scrub set from the kiddo hospital I work at that says "Future Doctor." I think he will be as shocked as I am!

We aren't telling friends and family for now, in case something happens. I don't want everyone to get excited to only be let down. But for now, I am enjoying this and taking it for what it is...nausea and all!
