Finally tested positive...

Today is one of the happiest days of my life. I've been undergoing infertility treatment since Norway, to UAE all the way to Singapore.

I was on the edge the whole of yesterday obsessing about whether I would test positive or not. Contemplating if I should get a HPT kit. But I told myself to just wait another day since mum and dad would be coming in with my HPT kit supplies.

Last few nights, I have been having cramps and twinges in my abdomen. At times the pain felt quite strong. I was happy to have some symptoms than none at all. As I am writing this now I am feeling the cramps in and off. I've also been feeling cramps om my toes for some reason. My body must be lacking of some nutrients.

This morning, poor little darling Zac was running a fever so he didn't go to school. He must have been bored all morning and during the car ride to pick dad and mum. I feel so sorry for him. But he behaved really well today and didn't kick a fuss although he was unwell. He is my little champ, always and forever. I love him to bits. Hope he will fully recover by tomorrow so he won't miss out on all the fun in school.

The moment I got home after picking dad and mum, I went to the bathroom to test. I was staring at the result initially and felt rather disappointed because I didn't see the second line immediately. However, after about a minute and the test was saturated, the faint line started showing. I looked at myself in the mirror and gave myself a grin and said "oh my god! Two lines!". I couldn't believe my eyes. I messaged Dave immediately and gave him a call immediately to tell him the news. He was having lunch with his VP so he didn't sound exactly excited and told me not to put our hopes too high.

Anyway, I was elated! I just couldn't believe my eyes and kept walking to and fro the bathroom to make sure that the second line was still there.

To convince myself that the HPT test I first used is not malfunctioning, I decided to run another test since my dearest mum got me 5 tests. So I went to the bathroom again to test. This time too, I got worried. The liquid didn't flow smoothly to the test screen and I thought it was gonna be another dud test. But after waiting for a little while for the thing to settle, the second line appeared even brighter than the first test! I grinned to myself again in joy and happiness and asked mum to witness that I am not seeing things. She verified that she also saw two lines on both the tests.

I am so excited to share this news with Zac. But I'll keep it in for a little while longer to make sure that everything goes well and give him a surprise news. Zac would be thrilled to know that he's finally gonna be a KOKO.

I'll remember this day forever till I die. It's a happy day for me.
