2 Pink Lines

So, obviously (an not at all surprising to most of you) I did not manage to wait until Friday to POAS. I dare say…that is two lines?  A little darker today?  I’d call that PREGNANT. Yes, I have a whole WEEK until my beta.  But, today I’m pregnant and I am going to enjoy it as much as I can.  Of course, today I’m “spotting” – TMI alert – actually it is more “pink tinged toilet paper” nothing red and nothing in my undies.  I think this happened with Aellyn too.  Basically the first trimester of pregnancy is a constant wing and a...

Morning Sickness?

Posted by on Jun 9, 2008 in Infertility, Uncategorized | 4 comments

Symptoms so far: sore breasts light, intermittent cramping frequent urination (esp. at night) pimples! (wonderful =/ ) constant heartburn nausea (see below) EXHAUSTED!  More than I knew was possible.

W went to Babies R Us and almost parked in “Expectant Mother’s” parking but...

Can you be a little bit pregnant?

**secret post; not to be published until after 6/9** Ok, so blogging has been for me one of the great joys of infertility. It is theraputic and I have made wonderful friends in the IF blogosphere. I also use it to communicate with family and friends so I don’t have to answer the same question 5,000 times. This can have a down side – sometimes I can’t post things because I know it will affect someone. Regardless of the outcome I will publish this after 6/9′s beta. Yesterday, after I got home from my ordeal at the bank I looked at the pregnancy test I had taken that...
