Signs of life
There are only two times in my life that I’ve cried for being happy. Uncontrollably cried mind you:
– The first was when S proposed
– The second was when S gave me this (after getting a call from the lab):
(It’s a little stocking ornament with a picture frame of our embies.)
I looked at him and said “What does this mean?” and he responded “The test was positive. You’re pregnant!”
WE’RE GOING TO HAVE A BABY!!!
Beta level on Friday was 61.7
Progesterone level is > 40
Today my beta level is at 671.
It looks like a healthy pregnancy!!! With those numbers it’s even possible I’m baking two little monkeys in there!
In a way this is just so surreal. It’s hard to explain how you can want something so badly and when it finally happens feel like you’re just dreaming. When I got engaged to S at least I had a ring to pinch me into reality. Now, other than the rare queasy spell I have no reminder that this is really real.
So I came home and had to do a Home Pregnancy Test: not to prove the clinic, but I wanted to see two lines for a change — after a year of single lines and nothing but, it’s nice to see that these pee sticks actually do work for me ;p
Here’s proof!
My first ultrasound will be the week of January 8th. I can’t wait to see it, and my mom’s already asking for pictures of her grand-kids ;p
HOLY CRAP!!!!! Congrats on the best Christmas gift ever…. I am praying for you ALL and wishing you the healthiest and happiest 9 months ahead!!
Many Blessings,
Katie
