My partner and I just got our first positive pregnancy test after six months of trying. This was try number 7. Lucky number 7.
I'm not even sure what to do now. It seems so surreal. We are going to call the Dr. on Monday for a blood test.
We have only told one set of friends and aren't ready to tell anyone else. The reason we told them is because we went through it with them when they were trying (they have a new 4 week old)...and they went through it with us. Originally we had said that we weren't telling anyone until after the first trimester....I'm hoping we can hold out that long. I'm not really even sure that it will be real until we hear the heart beat...or see an image on the monitor.
Part of me is skeptical...trying not to get too excited since we've had 6 months of disappointment...but there's another side of me that says I should enjoy it.
It's nice to get to "tell" someone...at least have it out there.
Thanks for listening.
Congrats :)
We just finished our first round of insemination - we are hopeful that the process will not take too long, but also realistic with our expectations I guess. We got pregnant on our first try of inseminating a year ago - but ended up miscarrying after a ton of medical issues out of our control, so we can totally understand the not wanting to share the news too early. I hope you have become a bit more excited about your good news - and all is going well :)
Congratulations!!
Wow - I remember that day....how confused and excited and scared we were, all at one time.
Congratulations!! You're in for a WILD ride!!
