5+2

I scared myself and DH to death last night. I took another CB digi to see if it had jumped to 3+ yet. Not only had it not jumped, it actually dropped to 1-2. So, I figured I should temper my expectations. DH ran to the store to get more so that we could retest to make sure it wasn't the test. The retest came back at 2-3. I'm still fearful since I should be solidly in the 2-3 week range, but hopefully there was something wrong with that first test. I did it midstream rather than in a cup. Could that matter? I am hopeful that everything is still going fine and that my ultrasound a week from today will be fine, too.

5 + 0

I took this test yesterday and it suggests my beta is over 200!
Also, DH told so many people about the pregnancy that I had to tell my supervisors about it to avoid them learning about it second hand. I hate having told people so early just in case.

I've had significant headaches the past 3-4 nights. It really sucks! Having said that, I scared myself to death yesterday after reading someone's post about blighted ovum. So, the headache last night was a not so gentle reminder that my hormones are still surging and I read that doubling rate begins to slow/stop in BO cases. So, I took an IC today (bottom). Thank heavens it looks darker than yesterday (top). Else I would've worked myself up into a frenzy. Fortunately, I only have 1-2 ICs left. No doubt my hcg levels are starting to max out the test. I AM going to get a couple of clear blue digits on Friday to see them say 2-3 weeks! Then, I should get a 3+ weeks the day of my US or so.

As a self-professed POAS addict . . . Look how dark!

Gender Prediction

I found a gender prediction test called Ramzi's theory that is based on which side the placenta attached to which can be detected on the 6 week ultrasound. It looks like there is significant validity to it! Check out this study from a reputable site. http://www.obgyn.net/articles/relationship-between-placental-location-and-fetal-gender-ramzi’s-method

Gender Prediction

According to an article I read (which may be complete bunk), you can determine your baby's gender with remarkable accuracy based on which side of the uterus the placenta attached. About.com has posted the same theory as near gospel.

Here's my 10 miu IC for the day. I've only got a handful left. Figured I might as well pee them out. ;)
