Retroactive Post II: January 24, 2008 or 11dpiui

I was feeling so negative about this whole thing by 10dpiui. All I could think about was the RE telling us before the IUI that there was only a 15-20% chance of this being successful. Those are not good odds...plus I really only had one big follicle. I was so discouraged. I actually emailed Dewy at 10dpiui, and told her I just wanted my period to start already, that I was done with this, fed up, and hopeless. Of course, she gave me a wonderful pep talk, and brought me in from the ledge. I was so so tired when I got home from work that night I fell asleep at around 7:30, very unusual even for Grandma Frump!

Well, when I woke up 12 hrs later I decided what the heck I'll test. The stick looked like something might be developing, but I couldn't really tell so I went to get ready for work and talk myself out of any excitement. When I came back to the bedroom (I like to keep them on the nightstand because I lay in bed and stare at them, even the negative ones at night before bed) to get dressed there was a second pink line!!!!!!!! I was shocked and amazed beyond belief. I took the test and woke the ever-suffering husband up, and yet again shoved a pee stick in his face. He saw the line too. We're expecting again!!!
