Yesterday was the third beta test to check hormone levels.
After a lot of wondering and hoping the call came.
Nurses need to start with high numbers first, just saying…
The call started off with the nurse asking the basic questions, “Can I speak to so-and-so, this is name-and-name from place-and-place, The doctors reviewed your blood work and you are at 109…” Wait, What?! 1900’s to 109? How can this be? what happened? I knew I shouldn’t have run that fast to catch some stupid kindergarten from almost being run over by some idiot parent…
“No, no you are in the 109th percentile.” Not 109 the level! I went from wicked sad to wicked elated. “Sorry, your HCG level is 4,100” {Huge sigh of relief and a yay on my end at this point.} See? See Puddle on Floor, See Puddle reform into a human.
Gezz, Big numbers first Lady, BIG NUMBERS.
Because my levels are “Wonderful” I am scheduled to have my first scan on Monday. Monday! Hopefully I get to find out how “far along” in the process the peanut is and get to see the uterus expanding the way it should be.
I have been feeling slight twinges of pain on the right every now and then. I chalk it up to expansion and normal beginnings of pregnancy.
Still cautiously optimistic.
