Random though from 8dp5dt....

I don't have much to say, so today a list will have to do...

- I tested again yesterday afternoon. Still two lines, just darker this time :)

- Provided our beta goes well this week, we are telling our parents this weekend. Both sets of parents knew we were doing IVF in July, but we were VERY vague about when it would happen and when we'd find out the results. They are all thinking we wouldn't know anything until early August, so hopefully it will come as a surprise... or at least kind of!

- I nearly threw up this morning before I got out of bed. Hopefully that was just a fluke. I'm pretty sure that can't be a symptom of pregnancy yet.... I'm not even 4 weeks!

- My beta is at 7:30 tomorrow morning. Normally I would be bummed about this provided that I live about an hour away from the clinic with morning traffic. Given that I know good news is going to come from it, I could not possibly care less that I'll need to be up by 5:30 and leaving by 6:30! I'm guessing I wouldn't be sleeping anyway!

- I'm trying to not to let myself dream too much about the nursery just yet, but it is SO hard... I've been waiting YEARS for this!

- Fun fact... 3 years ago on July 23rd Hubs told me he was ready to start trying (I'd been ready for awhile!), 3 years ago on July 30th I took my last BCP. It took us very close to EXACTLY three years to get pregnant.

- Hubs and I were talking yesterday about the night we found out. I realized that the tears that I cried that night were half joyful tears that this is finally happening, and half tears of relief that those difficult, dark, painful three years are o-v-e-r.

- I am beyond happy right now. When I got out of bed this morning I said to Hubs, 'this is going to be a great day', he replied with... 'I think they're all going to be great days for awhile!'

- I shared before that Hubs sister is pregnant. I have a gut feeling that his other sister has been trying for awhile and is having a hard time getting pregnant. I know how hard that situation is, that was me in 2009. Both of my cousins who I was super close to and my sister-in-law were all pregnant at the same time and delivered within weeks of each other- it was painfully hard and I hate to think she might be finding herself in that position soon.

What a happy day for you!!

You mentioned that you got sick. I have been feeling nauseous off and on every days since I was about four weeks too. At first I found it horrible but now that I am 8w it makes me feel better that everything is still cookin in there.

I continue to be so excited for you and can only imagine the joy you are feeling right now (I say that b/c our TTC struggle was only about half as long as yours). Can't wait for the updates in the next few days!
