After I did my blog posting this morning, about my disbelief at the HPT’s, I got seriously seriously itchy feet and decided to SMS Dr G. I SMS’d him saying that I was 9dp5trf & that I suspected I was pregnant and what were the chances that I could come in early for a beta, given that it was 5 days before my actual test date. So I sent the SMS and thought I’d have to wait a while. Not so, I’d barely pressed the send button when he’d phoned me and in no uncertain terms asked me if I’d been “pee’ing on sticks”!!! I was embarrassed to admit that yes I had been “pee’ing on sticks”.
Anyway, the short version of this rather long story is that I got the call about an hour ago, I’m pregnant!!! I never ever ever thought I’d get to post those words on my blog. I feel strangely detached from the whole experience. The clinic have asked me to do a second beta on Tuesday which is when my actual test date was scheduled and then we’ll take it from there. But for now I’ve been told to be happy and continue on with my meds.
So I will try!
I’m so thankful to everyone who has been praying for me. The message I’ve received over and over again throughout this treatment from so many was that God is a God of miracles! I have no words that can express how I’m feeling right now.
I’m afraid of what “could” happen, I’m afraid of the next blood test and all the pass/fail points to follow. But aside from disbelief, I feel to utterly utterly grateful and thankful. Thank you to everyone who has played a part in this, from those of you who supported me through, to those that prayed and those that encouraged.
Now God, you’ve proven you create miracles, now I want to thank you for the miracle you’re unfolding in my life!!
I’ll try and post something a bit more eloquent tomorrow, for now, I just want to bask in this miraculous moment!

October 8, 2009 at 12:33 pmYay! I know the next two weeks (and then the next six weeks, and then the next whatever weeks) will bring its own stresses, but you know that things are so much different this time round. I’m so happy for you – it’s really due. Hey, and you know the stats with FET: if it takes, typically the LO is stronger than average. Guess they survived the freeze and thaw. Still a very weird thought, hey… yikes. Wonder what they’ll be doing in twenty years – beam the sperm into the egg while it is in the tubes, who knows? 🙂

October 8, 2009 at 6:46 pmprayer request is up on my blog for you… and I have never been so happy to be right! (and that says a lot)
But right now, the nagging CeCe is coming out. I want you to celebrate. ALLOW yourself to celebrate. If thinking past the next hour makes you turn to worry and fear? then don’t think past this very moment. Go buy yourself something to commemorate today… something just for Sharon. I love you and cannot wait to spoil little ones from way out here!
