What are injection classes?!
My nurse just showed me how to do it in 5 minutes.

Aphrodite- YAY!!!!! Congrats!! You will have to let us know your Beta!

Heather- sorry to hear they are being difficult. Injections aren't that hard, and unless they are IM I don't really know why they would be a different class. I guess I am lucky to be a nurse because I haven't had to take an injection class yet.

babyplz- I am so sorry for your loss. We are here if you need us!

My re's office told me that they don't actually do beta's. I asked her if I could anyway because I want the numbers! She said they would order the test for me if I wanted to do it. So, I'll call them tomorrow with the good news!

My husband is so nervous he doesn't even want to believe it! He says he'll believe if another test is positive in the morning.

I'm just so excited now I don't even know what to do with myself! I should go to bed but I'm so excited! I just hope so hard that this sticks!!!!

I still can't even hardly believe it. I've looked at at least 100 negative tests and to now see one positive it's just blowing my mind!! I keep going back to look at it!!! I have one of those digital tests that came free in a box of OPK tests, I'm going to take that in the morning! I'll probably take 2 in the morning!!!

I took 2 more tests and they are both positive! 1 was the first response early test and it turned dark right away! The other was the digital and it came back "pregnant"!! It was so cool! So I've taken 3 tests now, 3 different brands and they are all positive!! I think I'm pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first response one was so dark I think I probably could have gotten a positive a couple days ago! I'm so excited!

Thank you all so much for your excitement! It's so nice to have people to share this news with who know exactly how hard it was to get!!!!

Thank you ladies so much, you have no idea how much I appreciate it! I just that this sticks!

I went for my blood test tonight and will have the results by lunch tomorrow. I'm hoping for a good number!!

I'm already noticing a lot of heartburn and nausea in the afternoon/evening. I think this is a good sign!

Thank you all again!!! I feel so lucky to have found this site and all of you where I can bare my innermost feelings and fears through this whole process and be totally supported!!

1st Beta

My first beta was 234 at 14dpo, not sure what to think of that! Seems a little high for a singleton, but still in the normal range. Yay! I'll have another one tomorrow to see the 2 day rate.

I'm going to do one last update of the list for this thread since I think all the results are in. I saw on another thread that Adoption2007 got a BFP too, so I think we had 3 from this group unless there are others that haven't posted yet.
