Well, today was supposed to be the first OB appointment with an ultrasound to date the pregnancy. I'm so upset that the Dr. she saw would not do the ultrasound because she feared it was too early. So, the Dr. drew a beta to check her HCG levels stating that they needed to be over 6000 in order to preform the ultrasound and be able to see the baby and date the pregnancy. She drew the blood today, made an appointment for another draw on Wednesday and again on Friday. :::SIGH::: So here we are waiting again.
Well, the office called and told her that her levels are 16,743! That's up there! So, I'm thinking she'll do the ultrasound now! Nope! The Dr. wants to do the second draw on Wednesday to make sure the numbers are doubling (my question is when they get this high, do they continue to double?), and then they'll do the ultrasound on Friday instead. Man, this waiting is killing me! I'm like a little kid on Christmas Eve that can't go to sleep because I'm so excited!!!!!
We went out and got my niece a laptop so that we will be able to communicate easier and closer which we'll hopefully ship to her tomorrow or Wednesday. We've also picked up some preggie pop drops, and pops for her morning sickness, and I need to get a bottle of prenatal vitamins to send to her as well since she's almost out.
Come on Friday!
