Beta #3

I came home from work and I've been soooooo sleepy!  I've been taking 2 hr naps and then I'm usually asleep in bed by 9:30 or 10.  It's nice to know that the little baby is growing inside so great.  I've been nervous. I'm not going to lie.  My first couple of betas were pretty low and It did make me think twice about this pregnancy.  I had a long talk with myself that "yes, you are pregnant! you need to enjoy this time.  you've waited a long time for this...."  Eventually it got through my big head and I've tried to just have fun with it all.  I love being pregnant.  Read: i love being pregnant and I haven't started the morning sickness. :) Here are my betas and progesterone levels.

11dpo-hcg:31 prg: 25.1

13dpo-hcg:51 prg:20.9

18dpo:803 prg:19.1

Ecstatic...

We're PREGNANT!  Yes, you read that right...we.are.pregnant!  Right now we are really early and are only 3 weeks and 4 days-with an estimated due date of December 22!  I don't know what else I would rather have for Christmas!!

Tested on Saturday.  9dpo.  Big Fat Negative.

Tested Sunday morning.  10dpo.  Big Fat Positive!

Test 2 because I just needed "to make sure".  BFP!

Test again this morning.  11dpo

And just for grins:

 WE'RE PREGNANT PEOPLE!!!

Oh, I called the drs office and they let me go in today to do bloodwork instead of waiting until Thursday.  I was able to go and be back within an hour and since I had told my Principal about it all she was more than willing to let me leave during work hours.  I got results back and the nurse said "Laura, you are DEFINITELY pregnant!"  I couldn't help but say, "yay!!".  I am going back to take bloodwork again on Wednesday and then every week after until we hit 6 weeks.  On my 7th week (which is the 1st week of May) we will be able to go in for our first ultrasound!  So freakin excited about seeing our little bean....which is his name.  I say "his" because I feel it's a boy! :) She let me know my progesterone levels were 25.1 and they were looking for over 15 and then also my hcg level was 31.  Can't wait to see what Wednesday has in store for us.
