BFP! BFP! BFP! BFP!

I feel like sh*t but I have never been happier! My HCG was 588--the nurse said it COULD be twins, but they won't know for sure until my first u/s in 3 weeks. I go Friday for another blood test to be sure the numbers are doubling.

I am in a happy state of shock, and soooooo very full of love for all of you. YOU are my rocks!!! I hope this BFP keeps catching on!

Helen - I've honestly never seen a colorless line before.  I've actually never seen any lines until last weekend.  So maybe it's just so faint that it appears colorless.  I'll bewaiting for your results tomorrow.

Lisa - I love your sprit and your positive outlook.  Will you be testing any time soon.

HeathJo - what time are you expecting your blood results back?

Empty - sorry about the job, don't let it bumm you out.

Magda - I am very excited, in a way I still don't believe it yet?  It's just that after 2.5 year it's finally happening.  But I'm trying to be very cautious.  We haven't even told our families yet.  I'm going for 2nd beta tomorrow and if everything is ok then we'll tell them over the weekend.  My mom is getting suspicious already she knows what I'm going through and she keeps asking If AF arrived or if I have any symptoms.  I won't be able to avoid her for much longer.

Helen, I don't have much experience with HPTs but I've been told that even if you see a shadow of a line, then it's a BFP.  I feel like we should all be screaming and there should be "YAY"s all around but I'm scared to jump the gun!!

Dee, so sorry about the job.  But you sound like you're doing okay.  I agree that you should consider it a mini vacation.  The same happened to me when I was living in Hong Kong and let me tell you, I was freaked... same as you; lost my phone, laptop and all.  I went straight out and bought a new laptop and a friend gave me a phone and the next few weeks were actually brilliant!  I have very good memories of those weeks!  I hope the same will go for you!!! ;-)

Empty,
I am so sorry about your job!  What a shock!  Was this completely unexpected?  I hope you will find another hopefully better job soon.

So, I woke up today at 4 am feeling hyper yet again.  Took BBT and decided that if my temp is high still, I'll POAS.  I am 13 dpo and cd 28.  AF on clomid is not due till cd 30-32.  BBT was pretty high so, I tested around 7 am and...  I can't tell!!!  I feel like ashort: I can see where the line is supposed to be but it has no color!  I have NEVER been confused with HPTs or test sticks before (this was one of those cheap test sticks that supposed to be super sensitive and detect HCG levels above 20).   This was not an evap line: the line started to develop right away, even before the control line developed completely but the test line just did not acquire color.  Does this make sense???!!  I'll re-test with FRER tomorrow morning if I don't die from axiety till then!  I am tempted to buy a few test brands after work tonight and indulge my POAS addiction but I am afraid that if those tests give me a BFN I will be crushed and my tiny hope will be gone!!!!  
Goood heeelp meeee!!!!!

Lisa:

I think your temp should drop 1-2 days before AF.  At least that is what I have been told.  On the wishful thinking side of things, a flu type bug could mask pg symptoms.  Additionally, lack of pg type symptoms doesn't mean a thing.  Stay relaxed though as it certainly beneficial to your well being.

Feel better :)

I am off to acupuncture.  Yeah!
