**update: warning* (I've tried changing the title but it doesn't seem to stick, sorry!)
Well, despite turning a second test yesterday and having one blissfully happy day imagining what it would be like to be parents, I woke this am to AF. I'm pretty sad. I know it happens all the time but it's an emotionally cruel roller coaster for sure. At least we know we can get the swimmers and the egg together, now we just gotta keep em together! Going to try to enjoy my last day here (and allllll the fruity rum drinks). And then I'll be back here with you ladies a little bit longer it seems!

Sorry, couldn't help myself with the corny title, ha!
So, I'm 14dpo, woke up very early this am and thought, if my temp is still high I'll test (did yesterday and bfn, though much later a pretty noticeable line did appear, assumed it was evap line and it might have been or just missed the squinter when I looked at 5am with no contacts in). I still had pretty high temp, so I tested and pretty quickly the faintest line appeared...so faint I thought I was imagining it. But by about 2 mins it was most definitely there, though faint. It never got dark but there's no question it's there.
MH was sleeping and I was trying to wait for him to wake up, but after a couple hours (he had too much fun at the wedding we were at yesterday) I finally got in bed and said, "hey baby?" He groggily said "yes?" and then I said "I think we're going to have a baby." It took him a minute to process, then we just snuggled. About an hour later he started pacing in our villa and discussing names and college funds, ha. He's shocked and still processing it now, it's funny bc we obviously aren't going to tell anyone here with us so we are tempering our enthusiasm and I'm glad we are in a place where I can drink virgin mixed drinks and no one will be the wiser
I'm keeping my excitement in check, I know it's crazy early, but for now I am pregnant and I cannot believe it!! I really haven't had many symptoms. Just sort of mild pms symptoms. Last night though, my ute did feel funny, like cramps but not, almost bloated feeling but not even that...stretchy? Hard to explain!
Oh...funny story...I was walking on the beach the other day and a guy was selling coconuts, he looked sort of medicine man-ish. He was talking about them being good for your kidneys and then he looked at me and said, it's very good nutrients for you, mama. At the time I made a joke that I thought he was calling me fat...but now I think he knew something, ha!
This board is so wonderful. It's been great for my sanity to come here and vent and read what y'all are doing, your successes and challenges have inspired me and taught me so much! I will of course be hanging around for a bit and checking in on you. I'm praying this baby is sticky and I can come back to the grad check in.
Many wishes to y'all for BFPs! Hugs all around!!
