We are very excited to report that our pregnancy test came back positive today!!!! The nurse called at 1:19 PM while I was at family's dental office. It was so perfect to be there when I got this phone call!!! Even my Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Jack were there because they are in town visiting from Vegas! I think I'm still in shock right now though!!!! ;)
Anyway, the nurse said that a HCG (pregnancy hormone detected by blood work) result over 5 indicates pregnancy. Well, we had a 26!!!! That isn't really high, so they are going to keep a close eye on me. I have to go back on Monday for more blood work and then again on Wednesday more blood work. They also have me on progesterone supplements because my progesterone didn't come back as high as they would like. This tells them how thick the lining of my uterus is. Therefore, they put me on something to help thicken that lining to help that little embryo stick!!!! We are just hoping that our HCG number continues to grow!!!!! So please keep us in your prayers. We are so very excited yet cautious right now. However, how could we not help being excited???? It's impossible! So pray, pray, pray!!!!! GO UP NUMBERS!!! STICK BABY STICK!!!!
