Results...

Well everyone...we have the results and it's wonderful news.  We are PREGNANT!!


Sorry for the delay we were able to tell our families and close friends yesterday.  I am obviously beyond happy.  We found out on Tuesday that our beta was 171, however, on Thursday the beta did not double like the doctors like, it went up to 285 so they wanted a 3rd beta on Saturday morning.  The beta came back at 771, which more then doubled from the previous count.  The doctors like to see a doubling every 48-72 hours at the very beginning of the pregnancy.  The nurses said that we didn't need another blood draw that they were happy with those numbers, so good news!


Our miracle has happened and we are just to thrilled with this blessing.  We will be going in at the end of March for our 6week ultrasound.  At this ultrasound they will be able to see the baby and possibly a heartbeat.  


Tons of emotions right now but still just praying that everything continues to progress nicely.  Long ago I knew that any pregnancy I had would not be easy.  Forget about all of the the ectopics and the IVF I am still a Type 1 Diabetic and that brings a lot of extra worry to a pregnancy. Nothing, however that I cannot handle.


OMG, I can't believe that I am finally writing this.  We will be having a baby in the fall and I am PREGNANT!!!


Thank you so much for all the prayers, love and support.
