Oh, missusaytch, I’m so glad you got a darker line this time. I read your thread, and felt so bad for you - I’d be freaking out too! I remember being so scared prior to my first ultrasound with DD because I had consumed an obscene amount of wine during the week following conception (unknowingly, of course). As for those pulling cramps… may as well get used to them 
They basically never went away for me last time around, or maybe it’s just that they eventually morphed into [name]Braxton[/name] Hicks.
I’m looking forward to getting a darker line. I’ll probably test again on [name]Monday[/name] or [name]Tuesday[/name], because my line was so faint yesterday. It’s so nerve-wracking to wait for that first appointment!
Oh, and according to the Chinese gender predictor, I’m having a girl, too. I’d love for that to be true!
