10dpiui... OMG... BFP... WTF!!!

Holy.

Shit.

Well, I was right. I seriously overbought sperm. :)

(Just kidding, I know this may not stick, and there are future siblings to think about! (someday!))

Here's the thing... I'm still fairly calm.

I think because I "knew". I really did. I just knew.

So it truly wasn't all that surprising. Even though it still was, in a way (I mean, who'm I kidding?!)

By only 3-4 days post IUI, a couple of people had asked me if I "felt pregnant". I wanted to answer, "I've never been pregnant, so how the hell would I know what it feels like???".

But now I know. And I've known for a few days. All these symptoms, this "feeling weird", not feeling like myself but also not feeling like anything I've ever felt before.

So here I am in Vermont for Thanksgiving. There's not enough room at my aunt's house for everyone, so I'm at a B&B. I was supposed to share a room, but a random twist of fate has me in my very own room. I set out the HPTs last night, got all ready so when I woke up this morning I was all ready to go. I told one of my aunts what I'm doing on Tuesday when I got here, but my other aunt and my uncle both came in last night, so I haven't seen them yet. And more family comes in today. So, I have a lot of "telling" to do today - first of my SMC plans, and then of the BFP. Holy Shit. BFP. First IUI. Go figure...

And yes, I likely will tell everyone, regardless of it being WAY too early... because that's me. And because I can't very well tell my mom, dad, and sister (who know when my IUI was) and no one else. I mean, people are gonna know. It's not that big of a group, and it's not that big of a house. And I'm not that private of a person. So I'm ok with it, because I'll also tell them just how early it is.

I definitely have something new to be thankful for today!

Happy Thanksgiving!
