BFP

I am stunned. I knew, I just KNEW I wasn't pregnant.

And then I finally talked to the nurse at 4:15 (Hello, longest. day. ever.) she sounded really chipper.

And I thought, certainly she would be that cheerful and then give me bad news...

She says, I have been dying to talk to you all day! It's good news! Your beta is 84.7, so strong, you are definitely pregnant.

At that point the husband and I started crying. We both were prepared for bad news. Conditioned to getting it, I guess.

The nurse (my favorite one, by the way, she's just awesome) told me that after I had left that she had cheated and dropped some blood on a HPT, and it immediately turned positive.

I can't believe she knew at 9 am, and I waited until after work to call them.

Normally they would do another beta, but the husband and I are going out of town tonight (hooray, vacation!) so I can't do one until at least next week. But my dr. thinks that's fine, she seems to think that we don't need to do another one at all since my number was so strong.

So now we wait for April 23. The day we find out if we have one or two babies, and get to hear their hearts beating.

I'm still anxious, though, afraid of losing them.

Of course, the fact that I'm pregnant still hasn't really set in. I just feel so normal.

Is it crazy that I want to go and buy a HPT and take it? I feel a little cheated that I didn't get to see the positive sign like fertile people do!
