OK ~ next BETA #'s in ~ IT"S (drum roll please)!

117 ~ they said it was fine, and I won't have another BETA, but what do you guys think? Also, they wanted to schedule the US apt. around 8/18, doesn't that seem too soon? If I go and don't see a HB because it's too early, I will FREAK OUT!
What do you guys think? I HATE BETA'S, I think I need to add that to my signature!
Why couldn't I have just rocked the numbers!!!!

Those are great numbers. I would consider them ROCKED! Just have faith in this as you have everything else. It is meant to be...especially after all of the turmoils of weaning. You are ready for #3 and being the third I have to tell you they are the best...and the least trouble Congratulations!!!!

Angela ~ I don't know, when I read what you wrote, I felt a wink!!!!!!

Yes, it's good I guess~
When I talked to the nurse on Friday, she said they wanted to see the BETA around ~ 140, and the nurse I talked to today (one of my favorites) said that she wanted to see it at 120, so 117 was fine. So I just need to have Faith, like you said, but I was hoping for smooth sailing! As long as I stay out of the hospital, I will feel like it was smooth sailing!

So, we haven't shared the news with anyone yet, we were thinking it would be funny to post the news on our blog, and see how long it took any of our friends or family members to see it???? I don't know if we will do it, but it would be funny to see who called first!

Hey, that's awesome!!! Make a, well what's the opposite of fan, club and I'll join it. And I'm so with you on the u/s; I am going nuts but am scared to go sooner b/c if I don't see anything then I'll make myself nuts...is it because there is nothing to see and never will be or it is just too early and should have waited to avoid the crazy of it all? Uggg...but all worth it in the end~even the stinkin' prometrium and/or shots, yes?

Hey if they are happy with the numbers - that's all you need to worry about. Remember how crazy we both went over betas earlier?! I would however ask for another one before the ultrasound. I had an early u/s with Ethan after my miscarriage months before and at 5w6d all I saw was a sac and I freaked out. But at 6w5d we saw everything, including the heart beating.

seems to me like you are at the perfect range!

i would calculate 123 - but it also depends on what time each day you actually had your blood drawn!

You are definatley having a baby!!!!!!!

I am so so happy - you gave me goosey bumps!!!

Oh Dre!!! I am so happy for you!! It doubled, that is GREAT!!! If you are unsure, then request another beta. I did, well, more like two extra ones. I was a paranoid nut, and needed to be reasurred that things were progressing as planned.
Posting it on your blog seems like a great idea! Then all you have to do is stand by the phone and see who calls first...you and dh could take bets.
Congrat again on your great number and blessing #3!!!!
