Out of consideration for those still trying and having rough time, I won't post this as my Show and Tell post. BUT LOOK!!
So glad I figured out how to do this today. Sometimes I'm quite clever. After spending time with the Apple tech on the phone trying to start up my macbook, I remembered about the bootable external hard drive I created. Fired it up, and was briefly able to access my damaged internal drive and back up my documents. And I'm able to work with it and post pictures. I still need to take the macbook to the computer hospital. Haven't decided whether to do it today or not. Maybe I'll be lucky and they'll have the right hard drive in stock and can just swap them out, so I don't have to leave it behind.
Anyway, back the the PREGNANCY!!! It's so reassuring to see the line get darker. I'm going to wait until Tuesday to go in for the first beta (13dp2dt), so the number will be reassuring, and so the 2nd beta will be Thursday, when my boss is out, so it won't be a big deal if I'm late for work.
As to how I'm feeling about all this, I'm terrified, but relieved, if that makes sense. I'm overwhelmed with love and gratitude for Angrycanrn. And proud that we made it happen ON OUR TERMS! I keep looking at pictures of her twins, especially their baby pics. JUICY! Now that they're 3, they're beautiful lean children, but OH! they were roly poly babies! My favorite kind. J in particular had the juiciest thighs! What delicious dumplings! I'm just imagining my dumpling baby. A wonderful feeling.
Thank you all for your love and support.

Hooray for darker! Oh this is so exciting.
Glad your computer situation is looking up.
My 2nd U/S is your 1st beta day.
I love fatty babies too. I particularly like when the rolls of fat create bracelets and anklets (and whatever an anklet on your thigh would be called).
Roly poly babies good, baby roly polies neutral.
SO excited for you and I totally get the fear of it all. Can't wait to find out the beta numbers!
