No new results till tomorrow.

I am sticking with the "nothing bad has happened yet" idea. We have our first challenge tonight. Some family and friends are coming over and we are going to a brewery for dinner. A brewery whose beer I LOVE. So I am not totally sure how I am gonna play it. I think I am just going to tell a half truth. I only got four hours of sleep and if I drank I would fall face first in my nachos.

They should accept that. I told Mister he will have to help cover for me. I am not a big drinker anyway. Usually I just have half a beer. So hopefully no one will notice.

I do plan on putting a hurtin on some onion rings. And dessert. YUM.

I am feeling pretty calm about our blood work. Not because I think everything will be perfect and we will live happily ever after- I just feel calm. Like, we have done every damn thing we can and if the baby dies, then something was just very wrong. I guess I feel like it's out of my hands. I am taking my pills, I am eating right, I am putting my feet up everyday and drinking lots of water.

I know I am a little crazy to think this, but I feel like everything will be fine. I have felt that way since the third beta. Like, intellectually I am prepared for The Badness, but emotionally I am just skipping around and seeing blue skies and puffy clouds. It's NOT LIKE ME AT ALL.

I live by the mantra that no news is good news. And I totally agree with you, you are doing everything you can, and beyond that it's out of your hands so worrying about it (excessively) is a waste time that could be spent thinking happy thoughts.

I think you've got a good cover there, but it will be tough. If that doesn't work, you can try my standby that you're on some medication that you can't drink with.

I totally get the mindset. One day at a time.

I think you have a good enough cover for the drinking.

I slid right under the radar. Now I just have to make it through the barbeque this weekend.

it is so hard, i'm glad you're feeling good. i always feel pretty good after a blood test or ultrasound when i see that there's still a heart beat, but then about a week later i'm back to stressing out. my next appt is on tuesday and i am definitely worried that i won't hear a heartbeat.

Happy? Positive? Sure you still work in retail?

There is no harm in having a positive outlook. As long as it's reasonable, and leaves space for Other Possibilities. And by that, I mean.............. cupcakes.

Yeah I am pretty stressed waiting for my call. RING PHONE RING.
