I went in for my beta test yesterday morning and told the nurse to call our home number and leave the results on our answering machine and we would check it when we got home. I didn't even POAS during the whole 2WW!!
I was nervous the whole day! Then when we got home, you would think that checking that answering machine would have been the first thing we did, but it wasn't. I could see the flashing message light and it just made it even more nerve racking! We decided we would change out of our work clothes because we wanted to be comfortable when we hear the news. LOL.
Finally, we changed and went down stairs and hit the play button on the answering machine.
We heard our lovely nurse's voice and I could tell she was smiling from ear to ear.
Our beta #1 came back at 761! I don't think I've ever had a first beta that high (or any betas that high!). We just held each other, in our comfy clothes, and cried tears of joy! We go back on Friday for Beta #2.
Our hearts are full of love and gratitude to all of you who have offered prayers on our behalf. I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who hears our prayers and has blessed us immensely on this journey. We are far from being out of the woods so I ask you to continue to keep us in your prayers as we continue on this journey.

Because if YOU start telling people and something happens, YOU will be responsible for following up with them! So, you may then ask if I don't want people to know, why post about it on my blog?? Well, because I have wonderful blogging friends who have supported me on this journey and I want to share with them to give them HOPE. This is not an easy journey and we need all the hope and prayers we can get. Please respect my wishes. Love you all!!***
