Daddy and I didn't think it would happen for us this month. It was only our second month on Metformin (medicine to control mommy's PCOS which is a insulin resistance condition that didnt allow mommy to make a baby) and Dosinex (a medicine used to treat mommy's pituitary brain hormone that also prevented her body from creating and keeping a baby). But we had been charting mommy's temperatures and thought we missed her ovulation day to create the little bean. So we counted this month out. Mommy and daddy took Auntie Angie to Washington DC for the weekend of 5/14/10. We ran around town and enjoyed the sights. Mommy felt tired but that's nothing new :). On Sunday we took Auntie Angie back to Princeton and on the drive back, mommy was feeling completely and utterly exhausted. She still didn't think anything of it. That night mommy felt like she had been having to pee a little too often than she's used to. So she said "Oh what the heck, I have tons of these cheap internet pregnancy tests, I'm going to use them up." This is the transgretion of results:
Sunday 5/16/10: Completely negative. No hint, sight, or smell of color. It was fine, remember Mommy and Daddy just "knew" it wasn't our month.
Monday 5/17/10: Morning test showed a wierd light light super light pink line. Mommy thought it was what they call an "evaporation line" which is not a positive. Night test showed the same line and it was driving mommy nuts. She researched evaporation line and still didnt get any answers. Some of her PW friends said to get a Clear Blue easy test because those say "Pregnant" or "Not Pregnant". Mommy freaked out and alerted daddy. They decided the next day they would buy the Clear Blue tests. Still, though, they did not believe this would be their month at all and did not get their hopes up.
Tuesday 5/18/10: Morning test showed that same wierd light super light wannabe "evaporation" line. How annoying! But mommy and daddy had decided to test on Thursday to get better and accurate results on the Clear Blue Easy test. Fast forward to the evening. After work we get the test. Mommy did well for three hours after having the test in her posession. She thought she could wait until Thursday to use the good test. But nooooooooo, who was she kidding. She totally caved and without daddy's knowledge, she ran to the bathroom with her heart racing and took the 99.9% accurate Clear Blue Easy test. And what do you know:
Mommy's heart leaped out of her chest and she could not breathe. She ran into the room where daddy was taking an online test and shoved it infront of his face. He did not understand the test (even thought it only says "PREGNANT!" but we won't go there! lol). And he said "hold on i'm almost done!" So mommy was sad and ran to the living room and was shocked as heck at what she was holding in her hand. Then she started sobbing uncontroloblly. Daddy later came out and didn't believe the test. Finally mommy convinced him it was real and accurate and daddy did a little dance and was jumping for joy. But then he started to worry about mommy. She cried harder than she's probably ever cried in her entire life. SERIOUSLY. She shook and did not know how to feel. She was both happy and terrified. She wants this baby so much she doesnt want to get her hopes up. The PCOS she has makes the miscarriage rate so high that both mommy and daddy are scared out of their minds. But we decided to be happy, hopeful, and pray our hearts out for a happy healthy sticky baby bean!
That night daddy kissed mommy and baby good night and we discussed our plan to call both doctors (the fertility doctor and the ob/gyn) the next morning and see what our next step was. We ARE in heaven.
