This is not a picture of my little vial of blood. I stole it from pinterest.
I heard from Dr V. She asked how I was and I said fantastic. Sooo, she knew I cheated. Haha. Even though I knew the beta would be positive, I told her I was worried the number wouldn’t be where it should be or something. She said it’s right where she wants it, it’s 109. I’m lower than the median at the beta base (I’m 10dp5dt, so on their chart, I’m 15dpo), so of course I’m still worried. But I think I would be no matter what the number is. I’m not going to stop questioning if it’s a chemical until after I see the hb.
I’m still crampy and bloated. I also think I’m peeing more often. And my hunger is all weird. But I welcome it all. Feeling different from normal is reassuring.
I go back on Saturday morning for beta #2 to confirm it’s rising appropriately. I’m celebrating that I have at least today and tomorrow, knowing that I’m pregnant.
AHHHH HHHHHH CONGRATSSSSSS!!!!!

hahaha Thanks!! I’m so ridiculously happy. I teared up on the phone with the Dr, even though I knew she was calling with a positive result.

He’s excited to have it be Dr V official, but his immediate question was “when do we do an ultrasound to see a heartbeat??” Which is my gut feeling as well, so I can’t blame him. I think going through this journey, especially following other blogs, you learn too much about heartbreak. So we’re just very cautious. But ecstatic. I know you get it. xoxo

Matt was trying to protect you. Not only was he afraid it wasn’t going to “stick,” he was afraid of how much it would break your heart if it didn’t. Also, when typing this, I kept having to go back and change “is” to “was” 🙂
