11dp5dt: FET #1

Blood is drawn.

Let the waiting commence.

In the meantime, we offer this picture to tide you over.

Can you see how dark the line is now?

Even a blind man can see how pregnant I am! (small homage to one of my favorite writers - who is also a psychologist - Amy Bloom).

It's actually darker in real life. Definitely no more squinting required.

Plus, I have to tell you, I feel pregnant. Uterine burbles a'plenty. Tired, tired, tired (skipped class yesterday afternoon and took an hour-long nap before dinner last night). Breasts are, well, yowza.

We had a bit of a circus act yesterday to get more Vivelle patches, Endometrin suppositories, and progesterone in ethyl oleate, making trips to two specialty pharmacies across town from each other. Geesh. I have never been so excited to have Will plunge a progesterone needle into my backside as I was yesterday evening. Really felt that I was feeding the little embryo, giving it a chance at making it.

I'm thinking the beta has to be higher with a line like I'm seeing on this test. Here's hoping it's higher enough. I'll post results when they come in. Am hoping to hear news by 1pmish.

Thank you guys for all of your kind wishes and your low beta success stories. We are so touched to receive so many visitors and comments. Would you believe that more than 1,300 of you visited the blog yesterday? A day we didn't even update. Who knew there were so many of you? We are extremely moved that you are out there, wishing for the best with us. A special thanks to longtime readers and to you lurkers who are making the leap to comment. It means a lot.

More to come, later today.
