Crazy Beta HCG

I just had another Beta HCG done today. My level is crazy! 65000! This had me worried so I "googled" it.  Most people are reporting that this is about right for a twin pregnancy.

My first ultrasound is on Thursday.  I can't believe it's only been 4 weeks since conception. My belly is definitely not getting smaller and I am going to have to invest in some new bras over the next few days.  I haven't been able to wear underwire bras since last week and my pants are definitely tighter.  I'm just thinking that this is way too fast for me to be losing my figure! =)

Fantastic News!

Thank you for your prayers!!!

I am officially pregnant!!!  Our Dr. mentioned normally he sees patients with a Beta HCG around 50. Mine is through the roof, but still normal (477.3). He says it is likely that we have twins, but we won't be certain until a future ultrasound.

Below is a picture of Dr. Wiwat and Tina, our international counselor/translator at our clinic.







  We spent most of the day with our friend in Thailand. We visited the Royal Palace and watched Wolverine! Then headed out for quite the dinner.



 
Please continue to pray for us as we return home on Wednesday.  To be perfectly honest with you, I still can't believe I am pregnant.  I know I have been cramping literally since the day after implantation and constantly thinking that my period is coming... I know I'm not out of the woods yet.
 
Once again, thank you for your many positive thoughts and prayers.  All I can say is "God is Good... God is especially good to me..."  This is a great 10th Wedding Anniversary gift for us thus far!
