So, I made sure I took a picture of my tests for you this morning on ICs.
In order from top to bottom (9, 10, 11, and 12 DPO). The line on the 10 DPO didn't show until after the wait time, which is why I asked about evaps. The line on the 11 DPO is super faint, but did show in under five minutes. The line today was there after about three minutes.
Sorry for the horrible pictures.. but I didn't have much time this morning and this is all I could do! I apologize for making you squint at the blurriness!

I went for a blood test this morning to be sure... I just can't accept it. Do you guys see it? Am I crazy? It's so light. But it's so early. And I'm FREAKING OUT. I have no symptoms like I usually do!!!! What should my blood levels be??? Over 20 if I can see these lines, right??

I'm so scared. Instead of being excited, I cried. This is pregnancy number four. I'm not sure I believe it. It's so easy for us to get pregnant. I'm thankful, but all I want is to STAY pregnant. I'm sorry. I think I'm loosing it. I'll have the blood test results this afternoon and I'll update again then...

Update - 2pm EST - betas are in... 74!!! woohoo!!! much higher than I expected at 12 dpo !!! PROOF THOSE ICs ARE SCARY but RIGHT! Yay! I go for another test on Tuesday! Please think of me!

I am going out on a limb to say CONGRATS! Yes I see the lines. I hope they are true lines!! I think your numbers will be around 20 today becaues the lines are light but defnitely there. Don't be shocked if the numbers are low... you are still early. Can't wait for your update!!

Kristin - I see them no problem, especially the bottom two - and I NEVER see them and I am on a Laptop in a Hotel, so the lines are there and they are pink. Congratulations and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Just remember you are under the care of several specialist this time that you have had not in the past.

Kat.
