So I broke down....

So let's explain something first:

1st: Getting pregnant without help is so vastly different than getting help to become pregnant. Why? Because when you don't plan on getting pg, you aren't worrying if you are or if you aren't pg. Where as going in for and IUI or IVF you know there is a 50/50 chance that you either are or aren't. And those 2 weeks from when the procedure happens to when you get your first b/w done to find out is so excruciating worry some. Over analyzing every symptom, worrying about any kind of leakage, and restraining from buying a home pregnancy test (HPT), the list goes on.

The clinic I go to makes us wait 16 days after IUI. And anyone who reads my blog knows that I went for THE blood work today to find out, but that I've also had no symptoms, and constant worrying.

So I checked the home phone for messages every 30 minutes, and hardly left my desk at work today, carried my cell phone with me everywhere I went....And NO phone call. AArgggghhhhh.

I've waited 16 days, isn't that long enuf...Why couldn't you have called.

So what happened? We broke down. We did something very bad, something that we didn't do last IUI until after we found out....Something I swore I wouldn't do. But 16 days already...Come on!

We bought a HPT.

And it was positive. Woo FREAKING Hooo....

Needless to say we are super excited....But we want the official confirmation tomorrow form the clinic.

Maybe having no symptoms this go around was a really good sign for things to come.

I'm going to step off cloud 9 for now, and drift off to sleep dreaming of carrying to full term....Until tomorrow my dear readers.
