Just Moved Over to Countdown My Pregnancy

Yesterday morning I awoke with more cramping, and a lot of pressure. It felt like extreme gas mixed with AF cramping. So I rolled out of bed fully expecting to feel fluid exit my body on the walk to the bathroom. But I made it there okay. On the toilet I wiped vigorously to get some stain of what was hiding at the front door, because I did not want to waste a pregnancy test on a negative and then have AF show up 30 minutes later. Nothing. 4 days late, I went ahead and chose to put my urine sample in a cup and dip the test this time. After 5 seconds in the cup I laid the test flat, and waited. 5 seconds past and I saw what seemed way to fat to be a normal line, and thought crap the last test I have gives me an evap line, you have to be kidding. 10 seconds pass and that evap line became narrower and narrower. I bolted out the bathroom door and woke up my husband and made him come into the bathroom to watch with me. He by the way was sound asleep, and had NO idea what was going on. It's hysterical looking back at it. Poor man! Lol. There were TWO LINES! Two very clear lines, no way! So he, with a big smile on his face, hugged me tight, and then went to lay in bed to finish waking up, I followed him to give him more hugs. I'm staying at my mother-in-law's house while we're visiting. She comes out of her bedroom and goes into the bathroom… where the test is still sitting on the sink! She came right back out smiling and crying… whoops, I guess we're telling Mom, hahahaha. Today we told a few others in his family. Now I have to schedule my confirmation appointment at the doctor. I'm so surprised my test came back positive after being just 4 days late. With my son I was almost a month and a half late, and with my daughter almost a month late before it registered on a home pregnancy test. I guess I'm producing more hCG in my old age :)

 | Comment from Kitten90 » Posted Jul. 12, 2015 8:16am Congrats! Cute story and it made me giggle this morning =) I have a friend who was the same way, she always had to wait til she was weeks late before it would register on a HPT. With her daughter she found out via a bloodtest at 5.5 weeks, didn't show up in her urine til around 7 weeks I think. |
