You see, I'd taken a pregnancy test two days prior and it was negative. Mr. E and I were crushed. We "knew" it hadn't worked. We had come to the frightening realization that we may never be able to have children. When the nurse called that day with the results I said "I already know it's negative, so please just call me back and leave a message with instructions about stopping meds and next steps for another cycle." I wanted to be able to listen to the message with Mr. E so we could be sad together.
Later that afternoon when Mr. E called from work to check in on me he persuaded me to listen to the message. And so I did, and instantly started screaming in disbelief. I called him back and just said "It was positive. I can't believe it. It was POSITIVE!" and burst into tears :) Happy, happy tears. Mr. E couldn't believe it either. He was laughing and shouting for joy. After Grace's birthday and our wedding, it was the best day of our lives.
I then went and took another pregnancy test. For the first time in my life I saw TWO LINES!

it's light, but it's there!
And so that's the story of how these three little blastocysts

Became this miracle girl!

Life is good!
:) Great story with a very happy (and cute) ending.
