Even though the nurses told me that they thought everything was fine and that I shouldn't worry. I was worried. I was still having pain and I was starting to get really concerned.
I went in this morning to have them redo the blood work to see if anything looked like it could be a problem. They just called and said there is nothing in the blood work that concerns them at all. In fact, my beta is now 8455. I can't believe it! I am really excited now!!
I know that we are definitely not out of the woods but this is really a positive sign to me. I really think I will just be able to relax now until we have our Ultrasound in 2 weeks.

It's A Miracle!!
I am just about bouncing off of the walls right now. Finally got our results back. Beta #1 on Monday was 145 and beta #2 today was 361. We are definitely pregnant!! The estimated due date is July 31, 2011. I can't believe this worked what an amazing Thanksgiving gift.
We go in for our first Ultrasound on December 12th. Hopefully we will see or hear the heartbeat on that day. Having had a miscarriage before I think I will be cautiously optimistic for awhile but this is definitely one of the happiest days of my life.
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Well, Crap
I go in for my beta this morning and last night I started getting very light pink spotting.
I am hoping with everything that I have that this means nothing. I am afraid that my period is starting. As if this day wasn't going to be long enough, throwing this in does not help a thing.
I won't lie, I cried last night. A cry that I haven't seen since my miscarriage back in August. I am going to try my best though to keep my thoughts positive today.
Need all the prayers I can get that IVF #1 is not a bust.
