Yolanda - you are one hot momma! I did get a little chuckle though (and please don't take this the wrong way) but your line has a curve in it too - mine was the same way. The two lines definitely didn't meet at the belly button! But perfect belly, nice and round and tight - PERFECT!

Mel, I am so thrilled for you and can't wait to see some pictures of your bump in the weeks and months to come.
