I went in for my second beta this morning. The nurse just called -- my betas today were 66.8!!! They more than doubled, and the nurse said things look fantastic... well, as fantastic as things can be at 4 weeks! I am so relieved. My RE wants to do a 6 week, 8 week, and 10 week ultrasound before releasing me to my regular OB. My 6 week scan (to look for a heartbeat, eek!) is scheduled for March 28th. I can't wait! I think I will finally be able to believe this is real once we are able to see the heartbeat.
So far I am feeling great. My boobs are still sore and continue to swell, and I am exhausted most of the time, but since I am all of five minutes pregnant I am blaming that on the progesterone I'm taking and not the baby (yet).
And now, because this is officially the second-longest I have ever been pregnant... my 4 week post!
How far along? 4 weeks, 0 days.
Weight gain/loss: None yet, just bloating.
Maternity clothes? Not yet, but I might switch to my maternity jeans (from last time) soon if the bloating gets worse.
Stretch marks? Not yet.
Sleep? No issues yet.
Best moment this week? Getting a BFP and hearing that my betas are doubling!
Food cravings: None yet.
Gender: I know its early, but I think it is a boy.
Belly button in or out? In, of course.
Movement? No, WAAY too early!
What I miss? Nothing yet!
What I'm looking forward to: My 6 week ultrasound and (hopefully!) seeing a healthy heartbeat.
Milestones: Making it to 4 weeks was a HUGE milestone, considering my previous chemical pregnancies all ended before the 4 week mark!
