Relief

So....

Maybe I freaked out too much yesterday. Now I find out that my friend's ultrasound is actually three weeks ahead of mine. :) Whew! That to me means even though I didn't see a heartbeat, it really is because it is too early yet. I was mostly scared because she saw a heartbeat and I did not and I thought we were the same gestational age. Come to find out that is not true. Therefore, today I got a text from her feeding back to me my own advice about HCG levels. :)  My HCG count on May 4 was 12,456. That is good. That means I am doubling every 2-3 days as expected. So, now I feel a lot better. Oh, and my blood type came back.... B-.  Yes, you read that right, now, after six previous B+ screens, the hospital now thinks I am B-, as I originally told them.

I leave at 4:30 in the morning and am still not entirely packed! Must go get that done. Also, good news...the husband has finally emailed me back! He is more than excited! His responses are only positive and encouraging. He really wants this. He says he is tired of his quiver being empty :) Also, he already has more plans for the spare bedroom to baby room conversion than I do! It makes me feel great. He also requested a picture of Beaner, which I already had ready to go to him! He said, "even if I can't tell what I'm looking at, I still want a picture of the little bean." So cute!

Going to finish packing and get some sleep. My next post will be from Colorado!

  1. So happy to hear that you are feeling better about your ultrasound. I'm sure at the next one you will be able to see that little heartbeat! Can't wait to see you!!!
