Men just don't get how taxing it is on a woman to see BFN after BFN and how scary it is to sit there waiting by yourself. So I found a test, but it was a First Response, not a cheap dollar store test like what I was hoping to find. I wasn't sure I wanted to use it. Those suckers are expensive you know. But I put that and a cup out anyway, just in case I changed my mind.
Before going to bed I decided that if my temp went up in the morning and I had no signs of AF or anything that I would test.
**Warning, if you don't want to know personal information skip to the end**
This morning when I took my temp I had to check it 3 times before I was sure I read it right. I mean it was 4am and the only light was the TV. I went in looked at the test and decided well, I'll pee in the cup, still unsure of if I wanted to test or not.
There was no sign of AF when I wiped so I decided to check my cervix. Low, hard and closed. I don't know what I was thinking, that it would be a sure sign or something, but whatever.
So I bit the bullet, opened the test and dipped it. I watched it for a second and wasn't even sure it was going to process. I went and put the toothpaste on my toothbrush and started brushing my teeth. I wandered back over to the table by the toilet where the test was sitting and looked to see if it even processed.
**This is the end**
So it's tears of joy I could cry. Please pray that this little bean sticks. We certainly aren't out of the woods yet.
Oh Brandi that makes me SO HAPPY!!! All of the sticky dust that I can muster is going to be sent your way!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn. I'm still in shock I think. Feel free to share with the other girls if they are interested. I don't plan on posting on FB for at least another 3 weeks or so.

ReplyDeleteI am so very very happy for you! The thought crossed my mind that you might be seeing a BFP, especially after you mentioned something about not feeling well, in one of the emails that you wrote regarding help for my mom's fund-raising.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that your baby bean sticks!
CONGRATS!!!
EEK!!! CONGRATS!
