Why thank you for the congrats, pretty ladies! The whole idea is a bit weird still. Hah. We told our parents on Sunday -- my Mom was blown away -- she apparently had decided that we weren't going to have kids ever. DH's Mom cried and his Dad kept saying "Wow! This is just awesome! I can't wait!" over and over and over again. It was kinda cute Don't think we'll tell anyone else for a few weeks yet. The parents will just have to keep it quiet. DH already has already got me to pick out paint and new window treatments for the baby's room -- I told him maybe it was a bit soon, but he's so bloody excited, you can't tell him any different. He actually suggested going to look at baby stuff this weekend, just to get an idea. LOL. He kills me. Anyway, I see my GP for my first appt on Wed. -- we'll see how that goes!

So I was having my first appt and US on March 8th- but after blood tests on Monday they moved it to today! So I am both excited and scared... my hCG was 51,000 and my Prog was 44,000 - which they said is kind of high. The RN said that could mean a few things - my dating is wrong, a molar or ectopic pregnancy, or multiples.

 

So I understand they are just trying to give me options- but when my husband and I looked up numbers I am totally within normal range for 7 weeks! Why would you even say the words ectopic or molar pregnancy to a first time mother?!?! My husband is an ER physician and said that numbers would be in the hundred thousands for molar pregnancy and prog would be low in an ectopic. I am kind of upset with them b/c all I've done is worry and cry the past two days - and I know that's not good for me or the baby! Sorry, I just needed to vent a little bit

 

Sloan I know your appt is today too- can't wait to hear how it went! Happy thoughts your way =)

Aww I am sure all is fine. I hate it when nurses/drs stress you out for no reason. They shouldn't have even said anything to you. Keep us posted and try to stay calm, your Dh is right.
