You guessed it.....IM PREGNANT!!!!!!
I am BEYOND thrilled. I know for a fact i got a LONG way to go but im SO HAPPY!!
So heres how it went down:
Saturday night i was having a mental breakdown and NEEDED to know. So pete went out and bought a digital test b/c he hates the whole "is that a line?" saga.
I wake up on sunday (now im a day late) and i chicken out! I figure i have 2 more days of shots i need to take one way or the other and im gonna be so PISSED if i have to do the PIO and not be pregnant. So i wait...
Monday morning comes (beta day). Im still too scared but if it was going to be negative i wanted to know. So pete shoots me in the bum and i walk around the house aimlessly until i get the courage to take the test. Finally, i convince myself to do it (but only b/c i was about to pee my pants!)
So its a digital and ive never taken one of those before. The little screen has a pregnancy stick flashing in it while its "reading" the results... OMG TORTURE!!! At least with the line tests you can watch the lines FORM!! So im sitting on the tiolet trying not to look, then all of a sudden the blinking stops and the word PREGNANT is in the screen.
So now im FREAKING OUT! I fumble and pull up my pants and yell/scream for pete...im running but i cant even feel my legs and i can hear my voice but it doesnt sound like myself! I find Pete down cellar and hes running up the stairs as im running down them. We stop in the middle and i shove the freshly peed on stick in his face "IT SAYS PREGNANT!!!!" and he said "I knew you were!" and i said "well I DIDNT!!!"
Now im laughing and crying all at the same time. I was(am) so overwhelmed!!! This WORKED!
So i pull myself together(kinda) and head off to providence for my beta. This was going to be the true test. All my betas have been low so i was nervous that the same thing was going to happen...again.
I got the call around 2pm and my beta was 261!!! The average beta for right now is 95! So im sitting on the phone with the nurse saying "ohmigod,ohmigod,ohmigod!!!". She trying to tell me the next steps but i cant think, i have to sit down and all i can mutter is "ohmigod!"
The next draw is wed to see if it goes up at least 60%. If it does then they will schedule my u/s.
Our family is THRILLED, but cautiously excited.
YAYAYAYAYAY!!!

Congratulations Torri! I don't know if you remember me from TTCAM/PAL or not (I'm rosiemadison) but I've been stalking your blog and wanted to tell you how thrilled I am with this great news. That is a HUGE number...I pray that means you've got twins! Anyway, congratulations! I just couldn't be happier for you, sweetie. No one deserves it more!

So this part made me REALLY smile/laugh: "So im sitting on the tiolet trying not to look, then all of a sudden the blinking stops and the word PREGNANT is in the screen.

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY FOR! :) I remember going over your house and watching A Baby Story with you on TLC (I'm a actually watching it right now)...and you saying how much you wanted to be a nurse/have children and you got half of that dream accomplished so now we need the rest to happen! You are on your way and I'm so thrilled for you! We really need to get together. Write to me on AIM or nicole-m-clark@hotmail.com. Hope to talk to you soon!
Torri,
I have tears in my eyes after reading about the day you tested!! I mean I could bawl right now...LOL I have a very strong feeling that you are having twins, and my intuitions are always right HA.....you better gear up! My prayers and love sent to you and your husband. This is a very happy ending.
