I woke up with cramps this morning & I figured AF was on her way again. Last month I only had an 11 day LP & today I would've been 12dpo so I figured she was going to show today. I didn't think I had anything to lose so I figured WTH.. I'll test.
I know some of you have been stalking my chart lately so I figured I'd post the results anyway......

I can't believe I'm actually writing this. It's been almost 11 months of trying. I couldn't believe it!
I went to the bathroom with the light off because I was so tired. So I PIAC & dipped the stick (Answer brand first). As soon as I saw it moving across the stick I set it down & went to go brush my teeth. I didn't want to stare at it obsessively like I usually do. But before I set it down, I *thought* I saw 2 lines. I figured nah, I'm just getting my hopes up. Brushed my teeth & of course I look over after a little bit. Turned on the light & there were 2- no mistaking it- lines. I started jumping up & down & saying Thank you God. All with a mouthful of toothpaste
Then I took a digi because after waiting so long, I wanted (needed!) to see that
Pregnant light up.
I wanted to tell DH right away. It was only 7ish & he gets up at 8. So I got out one of the onesies I've had since last year. And I had bought a Father's Day card last month. It's for a Daddy to be. I figured today would be something of a father's day. I wrote to him from the baby. I took my 2 tests, the card, & the onesie & wrapped it in a box & tied it w/red ribbon that had hearts on it. And it was funny b/c last night we had Chinese (I was craving it) and his fortune said "Share your happiness with others today". We both rolled our eyes at it last night. But this morning I took it & taped it to the box. I figured it was appropriate
It was funny though because while I was in the bedrm getting the onesie he'd woken up (he's usually dead to the world!) & I just went "Hey babe" all nonchalantly as I'm making my way to the dresser. I couldn't believe I could keep it together!! But I knew this was a special day for him & didn't want to ruin it.
So after I'd gotten the box together, I went back to the bedroom & woke him up. I said "Babe. I've got something to tell you. I know it's early but you're gonna want to wake up for this." & then hand him the box. I had such a serious poker face. He was like "Is this from you?" & I said "Well sorta" (hahaha). He opened it up & it took a few seconds to process. The first thing he said was "Are you serious??". And then he just kept saying Wow over & over. It was sweet & romantic & exciting. Now he's already started looking at baby Giants jerseys
Little does he know our baby's going to be a Patriots fan just like Mommy
That's my story girls. I'm so excited & this is so surreal...I just can't believe it. I feel like I'm in a dream. I'm going to post a separate thread w/my symptoms. I know how much I loved hearing about symptoms while I was in the 2ww.
Thank you all so so much for being there for me & encouraging me when I didn't think it could happen. You all mean the world to me. I know each & every one of you will get your miracle. I'm going to be stalking you all! And if you'll still have me, I want to stick around here a little (I'll disable the siggies! lol). I can't bear not to talk to you all. I'll just try not to post as much as I had been. I know this process is so hard.
I'm praying for every one of you.
I didn't think to take a picture of the inside of the box & the onesie. I was just so excited. But maybe I'll update this later tonight. But here's the front of the box & the fortune. I was too excited to even wrap it or really curl the ribbon nicely like I usually do LOL:
