the call


It is Wednesday – the day I have been waiting for in hope and anticipation.

I got up early this morning, drove to the clinic and had some blood taken - in hopes that I might be pregnant. I made sure my day was busy and full so that the time would fly. I picked out a few recipes, went grocery shopping, and started baking and cooking. (My husband will be happy about this when he gets home from work) ;)

Then the phone rang – “Newlife Fertility” was on the call display. I had thought about this all day. What would I say if it was positive, or how about if it is negative? Would I cry? Should I let the machine pick it up, or should I just answer?

See…this is the first time I have done it this way. Usually I take a home pregnancy test. That way I can be alone when I see the results. But Wednesday’s are the only day that my doctor is in the office – and if I was negative, I would have to see him today. So I had to find out today.

So I picked up the phone to hear the nurse tell me (in a sad voice) that she had the results and unfortunately it is negative. : (

More tears fell.

I am leaving now to go meet with the doctor. K is coming with me today, so I am happy and thankful for that.

So – what is next? Stay tuned to find out!!! ;)

I'm so so sorry. I found out that I wasn't pregnant a couple times from my nurse, and it is so hard. Email me when you are ready.
