well i started this blog once we started on the infertility treatment route as a way to get down all my feelings about TTC the UNATURAL way. i was 100% expecting to be having a lap at the end of next week, but instead i got PG on my diagnostic cycle of clomid! i still can't believe that after 15 months of TTC 
and all it took was one month of fertility drugs. hell if i knew 10 months ago that's all i needed to do i would have gone on it a long, LONG time ago! i tested on valentines day b/c i had been feeling off, and i got a very, VERY faint line.
so light in fact that i wasn't sure if it was real and i was convinced that it had to be an evaporation line. i was only 9DPO, but since i had a line and i had an RE appointment that day, i asked for a beta. the results were that yes i was indeed PG, but my number was only 6, but the fact that i was only 9 DPO is probably the reason it's so low.
i've taken a few more tests since then and they've gradually gotten darker, so i'm assuming that means my count is going up (yay!!). i go in today for a second beta and i've been praying real hard that the number doubles. we plan on telling my dad this weekend assuming the numbers look good, mainly b/c he knows that i might be having surgery and the only reason that i won't be is if i'm PG. well i'm not going to lie to him and tell him i'm having surgery, so he will be one of the first to know. we'll probably tell my siblings and matt's immidiate family the following weekend. and then of course we'll wait a while before we tell anyone else.
i was originally planning on testing on sunday b/c i would be a day late by then, and that day is special b/c it would have been my mother's 58th birthday. the fact that i found out so close to her birthday means so much to me, and i know she's looking down on me and smiling. i'm so unbelievably excited (hell i never thought i'd be so happy to be sick to my stomach!) and i can't wait until 10/29/06!!!!
