Borderline Psychotic?

Hey, at least the line is getting darker as each day goes by. I still can't believe it. This is the best Christmas present EVER. I go in tomorrow for my 3rd beta and then they will schedule my first ultrasound. OMG!

Blessed Again

My Beta HCG doubled! Hallelujah! It went from 75 on Friday, to 157 this morning. HCG is a hormone produced by the placenta shortly after implantation. In most normal pregnancies the HCG usually doubles every 48-72 hours and it normally increases by at least 60% every two days. When it gets to about 1200 it continues to climb a little slower. After about 2-3 months it will start to decline and eventually plateau. Here's my chart so far...it seems to be on the high end of normal. There's really no way of telling if we're dealing with twins here.

I'm so relieved, but now I have to wait ONE WEEK before I have another one drawn. Argh matey. If it has continued to rise, they will then schedule my first ultrasound. What am I going to do for the next week? Let's just say that my pee on a stick addiction has been taken to the next level. It's worse than it has ever been before, but it's my security blanket for now. I should have bought stock in those damn things...

Thanks to everyone for the well wishes and congrats...we feel so blessed to have come this far and still feel like we're dreaming!!! Grow baby grow!!!
