Beta 3 and Beta 4

I went in for my 3rd beta on Monday August 4th. I had prepared myself for a chemical pregnancy honestly. I got the call while I was in the laundromat that my beta went to 180 and that no more beta's were needed and I am officially pregnant. I had an appointment for my 2nd round of intralipids and was sent my pregnancy calendar for medication etc and to schedule my first OB ultrasound, which is on August 14th.

When I arrived for my intrapids two days later, the nurse asked me if I wanted to do another beta. I was so nervous but said yes. I spent the next 2 hours of my infusion in a state of pure nervousness and dread. I was so scared honestly. At the end of my infusion the nurse came back to tell me that my levels were 418! I started shaking and my pulse was elevated. This is much further than I have ever gotten with a pregnancy and suddenly the realization that this could actually turn out well entered my mind. I saw my RE on my way out and he told me he was very pleased and optimistic for this pregnancy.

Later that night I decided to write to Dr. Sh.er and let him know about my levels. Now he went from feeling like a small chance to saying that things look really good now. I am still holding my breath for Thursday's ultrasound but I can't believe it. I am actually PREGNANT!
