doubling

I just got the call: my beta today was 568. Fine doubling. They even scheduled the ultrasound for Monday April 13th. (WHICH SEEMS LIKE A LONG TIME FROM NOW)-- Good lord, every little twinge in my lower left quadrant makes me worry it is lodged in my wonky tube (very twisty) and that scares me badly and I cannot wait to find out that "it" is in a fine place so I can stop panicking about that particular thing.
BUT for now I will try not to panic, and instead revel in the good news of the day.

WOOHOO! Good news indeed! And yeah, I was told to come back "sometime next week" for an ultrasound. Whaddya mean? I want another bloodtest tomorrow!

Hang in there. And yes, enjoy it. I know I'm trying to...

WooHoo indeed! We called ours "the creature" for quite a while. Check out the "visible embryo" for info on what it is doing these days. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

Thanks for posting so conscientiously - I really like knowing what's going on over there.

Joining you in virtual revelry from a snowy Colorado. :)

Kate, that's terrific, keep the good news coming! I'm still jumping for joy over here that this crazy IUI cycle is the one that got you pg.

Dh and I went for a long, slow hike yesterday and it made me think of you and the signs of new life that are emerging everywhere.

I briefly told him what you've been through, and just before I got to your BFP news, I became completely choked up. I'm so incredibly happy for you that it is finally happening for you against all odds.

I know there's a long road ahead, with many worries, but I'm relishing this beautifully doubling beta with you today.

Absolutely fantastic. You have given me new hope. I guess sometimes you just have to have faith. I am so happy for you. You are going to be a great mom.

So hard not to panic... personally, I've resigned myself to having absolutely no control over this any more, and that seems to be helping.

I think you can feel very good about that 2nd beta. Focus on that.

i'm worrying right along with you. my u/s is on april 10 and, like you, every time i have a sharp pain or twinge i fear the worst. i will just be so relieved to see it on the screen and know that it's in the right spot and everything is a-ok. it's hard to enjoy finally getting pregnant with everything else to worry about, isn't it?
