Choo! Choo! Moving along...

Had my 3rd beta today. It came back at 15,035 which I was told is excellent.

So far:
1st beta @ 10DP5DT- 582
2nd beta @ 12DP5DT- 1343
3rd beta @ 19DP5DT- 15,035


I'm so relieved. Maybe I am just seriously jaded and negative or something and always expect the worst. I had knots in my stomach all day and finally had to call and get my results b/c I couldn't handle the waiting anymore. The nurse said they wanted my beta today to be at least 5800 so obviously I was way over that. I'm still having my progesterone draws too- but they take 24 hours to get those results. Last week my level came back at 130 so they had me stop the PIO shots for now :-) (my booty get a break!) I'm still on the suppositories and they'll continue to monitor the progesterone level until I'm out of my first trimester.

I had my 2nd IVIg (infusion therapy) last Thursday. It was a long 3.5 hour each way w/ hail, rain and lightning. Not fun...but the IVIg went really well. If you recall I had a horrible experience the first time b/c of the Lupron induced migraine. I was in hell that day and this time it went smoothly and there were two other Dr. Z patients there to chat with.

As for pregnancy symptoms: I become tired easily and quickly. I'll feel fine one second and ready for a nap the next. I also find myself starving all of a sudden. It's like 0-60 from not hungry at all to needing food and needing it NOW. I've never been a huge "eater" and its funny when I tell J I'm hungry and I am really serious that I need something in my stomach right now...not 20 mins from now. Our food runs have gone up dramatically. Other than that not much to tell.

I'm basically counting the minutes until my first u/s on March 11th. I want to see that this is real and that I have an actual life or lives growing inside me.
