I told/showed E the pee stick. He looked at it and said, "not pregnant". I then had to explain to him what the two lines meant and that it was okay that the one was lighter than the other. He really didn't believe me. I had to convince him it was real. He was so afraid to believe me because of what happened with our first IVF. I had to bring him upstairs and show him all of my other pee sticks that I've been stashing for the past 4 days. He's so happy and excited. Both of us are.
We went to his parents for dinner today. Hard not to say anything. It's all I could think of.
My symptoms:
Been very gassy. Strange feeling in abdomen. It's not really cramps, kind of like a pressure. I'm very aware of my uterus. There isn't enough water in the world to drink. I get SO thirsty. I go from being not so into food to starving like I haven't eaten in a week. There's no, 'I think I may be hungry' it's 'oh my god I have to eat right now or I'll die' hunger. Tired. Waves of nausea. But it's not flu like nausea, just a weird 'I feel like I might get sick' feeling. Hot flashes. My face gets really red and my ears will feel like they are on fire. I also get really cold. My body feels like it's 'buzzing' or 'working' it's hard to explain. I feel like I'm getting a cold. And then there are the trips to the bathroom. I had no idea the human body could produce so much pee. I don't think I've ever peed this much in my life. This is amazing.
I'm so blessed to be experiencing this. It's more amazing than I could have ever imagined it could be. I know it's still early, but this baby deserves to be loved.
I feel like I'm living in a dream.
