7dp5dt

I PO2S's this morning (at the same time). Answer and EPT. I think the sensitivity levels are 25 and 50 respectively. Answer came up positive in seconds. EPT was a fantom line that evap'd.

So to answer the question 'what is my beta?' I have no idea! I forgot to ask. I could phone today but I don't want to just yet. I want to enjoy this moment. The moment where there is no ambiguity - I have had 2 positives. I am pregnant. In the past we get to about 6 weeks and it all goes tits up so I have decided to let go and free fall through this early stage. I am sure I will ask for my beta number on Wednesday. But after that I shall ask her to only tell me if there is a problem or until I hit 1000 or something.

I told my support group last night and there was appropriate cautious jubilation. We all know too much to celebrate until 12 weeks. But, oh it was nice, being the one, the one that got to say, "I have some news".

So all I know right now is that the numbers are on the rise. And that is all that counts. If I weren't so tired I would be wagging my ass off.

Thank you to everyone that left such wonderful comments. Thank You.

    I love the thought that you have a IRL support group you can tell such things to, and they actually support AND understand the risks! But as you say, for now it is a leap of faith - you've passed that first huge hurdle, and now you count your blessings as you leave 2009 preggers!

    Yay, pregnant for another day! I, too, hope you are pregnant until, say, September of 2010! And then come home with a lovely baby (or two)! :)

    EPT sucks. I think I mentioned that in one of my posts. They have the most screwed up little lines and window and are difficult to read. So congrats on your fading line! That's a win win. SO happy for you..... Oh, and the beta numbers are a bunch of crap too. So long as they keep going up appropriately. My first beta was 54....a low number by some standards and I had 3 cooking in there! It's lab dependent, etc. :) Merry Christmas my dear.

    Silly goose. Your comment cracked me up. And I'm in Portland, not Seattle. Yeah, I've done a good job concealing that little fact. ;)

    Good for you, just enjoying the moment. Enjoying BEING PREGNANT. Your DH must be thrilled and I'm SO glad you went forward with this cycle instead of waiting one out. We will try to patiently wait for your beta. :)

    Thinking of you and your good news. With (I love the phrase) cautious jubilation.

    I so understand the cautious celebration, and the desire to wait to hear numbers. Enjoy the moment.

    Hugs,
