Yesterday (June 9th) I had my second beta test (that's just blood work). They do the betas two days apart, and want to see the number go up at a steady rate (basically double). My number jumped from 2,364 on Thursday to 4,717 on Saturday. I will have my third beta tomorrow (Monday). My numbers should be around 8,000 something.
I am still incredibly nervous, as I'm sure all newly pregnant women are! You never know what to expect! You get extremely worried when you have cramping and queasiness for several days in a row, then one day you don't have any of it. Apparently that is normal though. I just need to take the "good" days as just that! I have been hit with several symptoms already though, and they of course come and go. One thing that never seems to go away is the bloating! The bloating seems to be 24/7. Gas, queasiness, lightheaded (at times), constipation (fun, huh?), swelling, fatigue, extremely tender boobs, etc. The next 7+ months should be rather interesting if I continue at this rate. Oh yeah, can't forget being hot! Last night we went to my brother in laws house. I was rather warm. As I was laying on the couch falling asleep....my eyes started to tear up. I was crying because I was hot. SERIOUSLY???!!!! Lol!
Hey, I'm not complaining at all! I find it to be rather amusing! I will take every single thing that comes with pregnancy, and will take it with a smile! I have fought so hard to get to this point....that these symptoms are a walk in the park compared to what I have already endured! :O
