I just got the phone call regarding my beta results. My number is now at 12,025! My number increased by 2 1/2 times! Next step, the ultrasound at 6 1/2 weeks. This is where we check for a heartbeat and to see how many gestational sacs there are! Exciting! :)

Beta # 3
Today I have my beta # 3. This should be the final beta before I have an ultrasound. As usual, the nerves are going crazy! I just keep praying that everything goes well.
Today is also the first day I returned to work. I've been off for this entire IVF cycle, which has been fantastic! It's pretty difficult trying to get back into the groove of things. The day is passing so slowly. I wish it would go a bit faster! Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to wait for my blood work results?!
My appointment was at 9:45 this morning. While I was sitting in the waiting room, my stomach started to rumble. I started to feel queasy. I obviously didn't get enough food in my belly this morning. I need to make sure I have breakfast foods readily available at home so I can just grab and go. So after my appointment, I decided that I needed something to eat....PRONTO!! I stopped at McDonald's and got a bagel with cream cheese and an orange juice. That definitely helped! Now I feel like I am ready for a nap!
I had a new symptom today.....that metal feeling in my mouth. It sure does taste great (sarcasm!!). Well, guess it's back to getting some work done!
