AHHHH!!! Its UNREAL! BFP! 10dp5dt Beta HCG test

Hey everybody!! (If you just want to see my beta HCG number scroll down to the bold red text in the next paragraph.) Today couldn't have come soon enough. I felt really good about my beta HCG test because I caved and have taken a pregnancy test everyday for the last three days :D but I knew I would feel better after getting the blood test. 3 days ago I took a strip pregnancy test where if the second line shows up you're pregnant. Well it looked like maybe a SUPER SUPER faint line might have shown up but I wasn't POSITIVE. So after taking two and dipping one in water I cried and cried because I decided there were lines there! I was very very happy and said a prayer of grattitude to my Heavenly Father for this miracle. I still wanted more definitive answer so I went to wal mart and bought the clear blue digital pregnancy tests. So it was less stressful, it says either "pregnant" or "not pregnant". I took the test when I got home and was trying to tell myself its no big deal if its negative because its still early and I could still be pregnant even if It said negative. I knew deep down however I would be a little devestated and worried if it came back negative. I honestly should have been waiting for the blood pregnancy test but I was just dying during the two week wait. And then.... PREGNANT?! I calculated the days and read on the internet to see how long HCG stays in the system after a trigger shot. Some places it said it stays in the system max of 10 days and I was 13 days past trigger shot and other places I read two weeks so I figured I could still be showing a false positive pregnancy test. Either way I WAS ECSTATIC!! In fact. As I was walking out of the bathroom holding the pregnancy test in my hands I almost passed out I was so shocked and excited. I fell and caught myself on the wall and decided to lay down for a minute. Now I understand the phrase "I have good news, are you sitting down?" haha I suggest stay sitting for a little while after you read your pregnancy test. I decided I shouldn't keep the good news from Gavin a day longer so I printed off some pictures of Gavin with brand new baby Cienna and put them up on the magnet board. I put a onsie on the table that said I <3 daddy and the positive prego test by it and a note that said he was going to be such a good daddy. When he got home from work I videoed him walking in. He was shocked but a little confused because he didn't realize we could take a pregnancy test early. I don't think he believed me that it was pretty legit. So every day after I took a test and it was always POSITIVE :D :D I loved taking these tests! A little addicted to getting a positive pregnancy test. :D

Soooo today was the big day!! I went in at 11 and got my blood drawn. I didn't want to wait for the office to call me and my friend told me I could get my results right from the lab in an hour. So of course I did!! My beta HCG was 343!!!! I WAS SO EXCITED!!! Kept asking myself, this means im pregnant right? Am I really pregnant?? I called Gavin and he didn't answer at first. When he called me back and I told him he sounded so excited!!!! he said, "THATS AWESOME!! The nurse said that anything above 25 is pregnant but they like it to be above 100 so my numbers were beautiful. I take another blood test in a week and then my first ultrasound is at seven weeks on Feb 26. I can't wait to hear the heartbeat!! I will feel so much better once I get to hear the heartbeat!

My symptoms right now:
Insane cramping!- I woke up last night at 2 am with an insane cramp. I couldn't sleep for a couple hours. It hurt so bad :( but Gavin took good care of me. Today I've been cramping on and off all day too. It feels like a charlie horse in my abdomen.
Need a bigger bra - TMI but its one of those first pregnancy symptoms and they're super sore
Naps- I can feel my body wants to focus on helping my baby grow which is awesome! Hope I can keep up with my 12-14 hour shifts at work.
BLOATED- I look 3 months prego already. This is partly because I got a little overstimulated before egg retrieval and I think some of my symptoms are coming back but I also think its a early pregnancy symptom.
Im glowing- This may or may not be because I know there is a baby being made inside me now!

  2. I am bold enough among many others to state that there is now a potent cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with the virus 3 months ago, after a medical check-up. My doctor told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my world has crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the announcement of my medical practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my medications (as there was no medically known cure to Herpes). I went from churches to churches but soon found that my case needed urgent attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my predicament, I sought for solutions from the herbal world. I went online and searched for every powerful trado-medical practitioner that I could severe, cos I heard that the African Herbs had a cure to the Herpes syndrome. It was after a little time searching the web that I came across one Dr Itua(A powerful African Herbal Doctor), who offered to help me at a monetary fee. I had to comply as this was my final bus-stop to receiving a perfect healing. My last resolve was to take my life by myself, should this plan fail. At last it worked out well. He gave me some steps to follow and I meticulously carried out all his instructions. Last month, to be precise, I went back to the hospital to conduct another test and to my amazement, the results showed that negative,Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Desease…Cancer,Hiv,Herpes, Hepatitis B,Liver Inflammatory,Diabetis,Fribroid,,Non Hodgkin Lymphoma,Skin Cancer,Uterine Cancer,Prostate Cancer Dercum,Infertility,fibromyalgia,Get Your Ex Back,Als,SYPHILLIS,Genetic disease,Epilepsy, Parkinson's disease..You can free yourself of this Herpes virus by consulting this great African Herbal Doctor via this e-mail: drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com or call and whatsapp him on +2348149277967 He will help you and his herb medication is sure. he has the cure on all disease .You can talk to me on INSTAGRAM..tashamoore219....
