Four Pee Sticks and a Beta

Not to be confused with Three Weddings and a Funeral.

I am the proud owner of four pee sticks that were taken on four consecutive days, and were each nicely darker than the last. I stare at them fondly every time I go into the bathroom. And yesterday, when I was feeling sorry for myself because:

1. MASSIVE and ugly mother of a bruise from the Lovenox injections (seriously, the size of a baseball). I must have gone through a vein.

2. nausea (although I somewhat welcome it, kind of a love/hate thing there)

3. unidentifiable rash (heat rash, probably)

4. both buttocks HURT because of PIO shots

5. I had a 12 hour day ahead of me with parent/teacher conferences

I felt instantly better just looking at those lovely lines.

Yes, I know I've been here before. This is the honeymoon part where things seem hunkey dorey. I know the hard part is ahead of me. The heartbeat... But I've decided to go ahead and savor this process. Am pregnant until proven otherwise.

And then today...

My beta at 15dpo or 10dp5dt is 454!

My last beta was 97, the one before that was 127, and the one before that was 25. So, heck yea, 454 sounds pretty good to me.

My next beta is Monday afternoon, but I won't get the results until Tuesday, probably.

Thanks everyone for your positive comments! They definitely brought a smile to my face.
