Second Beta!

beta # 2 = 626. That is a doubling time of 1.55 days. I am thrilled. I think my son is suspicious, he flat out asked me if I was pregnant.

I flat out told him "Colin these things take time". He is a little kid who has NO concept of time, if I tell him in a few weeks that I am pregnant I doubt he will do the math.

So, I go back on Wed and then hopefully an U/S next week. The only thing that sucks is the fact that my weeks change on a Sat. My local clinic is not open on the weekends. Which means that I have to go to the main clinic if they do the u/s on sat.

I think I might go to the main clinic (at exactly 6 weeks) on the sat. And then for the next u/s just ask if I can do them on the Fri - so I will be 6 weeks 6 days, 7 weeks 6 days, etc.

I want to do the first one at 6+ weeks because the last time we did not see a heartbeat at 6w0d - I would rather wait an extra day and have a better chance of seeing it.

One thing that works on my side is that I did my IUI early, so I am really 2 days ahead - well at least that is what I am thinking.

How can a phone number make you want to throw up

Seeing the phone number from my RE always makes me want to hurl.

Beta # 1 = 165
Progesterone = 30

So, good solid numbers

Please vote on a ticker

Yup - I am lame. I wanted a different ticker than everyone else. I have a few options:


















Whch one do you like the best??

Digital says PREGNANT!!!!!

I know I said that I was not going to buy a digital. But, I had a coupon for $1.50 off and a 2 pack was only about 8 bucks at walmart. So, I caved.

The digital says PREGNANT!!!!!

I am over the moom. Frank is excited too. Beta is still not until Friday - but I am confident that I AM PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vibes that this pregnancy ends with a healthy baby.

Because I am lame, I recorded my pregnancy test. It is pretty boring, and as soon as I saw pregnant, I some how stopped recording. So, it is actually in two videos.

The first part:

The second part:

The final result:

Another Faint Line!

I really thought the line would have gotten darker than yesterday. Especially since I was using first morning urine.

But, there is no mistake, there is a second line there! I still don't believe it though. I know a line is a line, but I would really like something darker.

And, no - I probably will not buy a digital. Too expensive!!

So, as a matter of public service - here are two pictures. There really should be a class on how to properly take pee stick pictures - mine always come out like crap.

I still had to draw an arrow, but I think you can see this line a little better than the one from yesterday.

Yes I am THAT addicted to POAS

I know I have a limited supply of HPTs in the house...so I am not sure why i think I need to use them all....I guess I have a real addiction to POAS.

So, anyway, i just used my last cheapie test. The results??????? Probably the faintest, super light, not even sure if it is actually there, second line.

WHAT!!! That's right, I THINK I see a second line. I even compared it to my other pictures, to see where a positive line would be.

BUT, I don't know if I see a line just because I want to see a line. Even though I KNOW what a stark white test looks like.

Here is a picture - i tried to do a reverse color to see if you could see it like that, nothing.

This is the best picture I could get. I am not even sure if I can see the line in this picture. I drew an arrow where I think the second line is. It is so faint that you really can't even see it - which is why I am not even sure it is real!

I guess I will be testing again tomorrow!!!

I hope this cycle is like the cycle I got pregnant

The cycle I got pregnant, I tested negative at 10dpiui, and 11dpiui (morning). So far, this cycle is the same.

I KNOW (first hand) that these negatives could mean nothing. I am not sure if I will test tomorrow (12 dpiui) or wait until Wednesday. I only have 3 tests in the house - 2 FRER and 1 cheapie. My beta is on Friday.

I am SOOOOO hoping this cycle is exactly like the cycle I got pregnant and will test postive later in the week.
