Do you see what we see? AKA, HPT limbo!

on January 17, 2012

Well, you guys… I don’t know what to say.

I woke up at 6 this morning to thunder and lightning, and I could NOT get back to sleep.  So temped and then left Shorty in bed to go downstairs and POAS.  Much to my surprise, within about a minute or two I got the very faintest of faint, PINK second line.  Now, I see so-called “second lines” all the time but never this clear and they’re never pink.  I promptly put the test down and RACED back up the stairs to wake up a very-confused Shorty and get her to squint at the test with me.  On the way down the stairs as she was leaning on me (she was a little disoriented lol, I got her up kind of fast!) she commented that my heart was racing… well, YEAH!  It’s not everyday that an HPT turns up possibly-probably-hopefully positive!  So she finally gets downstairs and picks up the test and looks and looks… and I’m standing there shaking and praying she sees it… and finally she goes, oh yeah, I see it.  Right there! Shorty saw this one!  I was like do you think it’s pink?  And she said yes.  And I asked if she thought I was imagining it and she said no, it’s there, it’s just very faint.  The fact that Shorty saw the line, that it wasn’t just me… cue me bursting into tears.  We are both on pins and needles… it is so faint but it is THERE.  I cannot wait to pee on another stick and hopefully it comes up darker than this one! Right now, I am so afraid of using the “P” word- it doesn’t feel real yet, doesn’t feel like our lives just completely changed yet.  But if I’m being completely honest… I think it is and I think they did.  Cue more tears (of joy!).

Sorry for the huge picture, I was trying to give you guys the best shot of seeing what we see!  If you can’t see it, it’s okay… hopefully we’ll have a darker one to post tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you see it?
