What is it with Tuesdays?

*Written on March 12, 2013: The day we found out that we are pregnant!*

Tuesdays are always hit or miss for me.  Super awesome or super crappy.

3 weeks ago on Feb 19, I went in for my follicular ultrasound to find out that my follicles were only 14mm and 12mm, which was not what I was hoping to hear.  2 weeks later on a Tuesday my doctor told me that we should look into the HSG test for next month.  Then today this....

I actually wasn't originally going to take a test, but my doctor suggested it before I see her next just so we could document it.  So 5am rolls around on Tuesday, March 12.  I take the test and immediately two lines show up.  I have never seen two lines!  I started freaking out and ran out of the bathroom saying "Holy sh*t, I'm pregnant!"  Not the best way to tell your husband.  Andrew was shocked and it was 5am, so he really wasn't awake yet either.  I skipped my morning workout to snuggle in bed and think about the little one.


I was super excited so I decided to take a test with me and take it before the kids came in the morning just to be sure.  And guess what....

I texted this picture to Andrew and he said "I'll believe when there's a blood test."  I think he was still in shock.

I emailed my doctor and she was shocked as well and called to set up a blood test.  Thankfully, I have a wonderful co-teacher who took over my class at the end of the day so I could leave early to get to the clinic.  They drew my blood and I was on my way within 10 minutes, very anti-climatic.  In the meantime, still freaking out.  I ran some errands and picked up a few things for Andrew, but refrained from going to the Target baby section (It was hard!)

Since I didn't tell Andrew in a cute, sweet way, I thought I would make it up to him.

Congratulations!  We've got a bun in the oven!

Within the next few hours, my wonderful doctor called me back to tell me my results.  My HCG betas were at 533!  Most definitely preggo!  She was so happy with the results.  We set up the first ultrasound for a few weeks from now at the end of March.  I can't wait!
