And the survey says...

Well if I believe the majority of you, we are for sure having 2 babies. The results are:

1 baby- 6 people
2 babies- 33 people
3 babies- 3 people (confused)

Only a few more days and we will know the answer!

In other news, I got to stop my daily injection in the bum of progesterone yesterday. We will now only be doing them once a week until November. I am thrilled and am so excited to not be limping around anymore because my bum is sore.

I'm still feeling good. Tired and hungry but good. No sickness or weird symptoms. I hit the 6 week mark on Sat and that is usually when the sickness kicks in but maybe I'll be one of the lucky ones!

Let's take a poll...

How many babies do you think are growing inside of my belly? I'll post the results in a few days. Only 1 more week until we actually find out!

An appleseed!

Just in case you were wondering...my little embryo is now the size of an appleseed and looks like a tadpole. This week its brain is forming. No wonder I'm so hungry. It takes a lot of energy to make a brain!

Doubling Betas

Yesterday was our last beta appt at the clinic. My # went from 483 on Sunday to 1028. Again it more than doubled. I'm not sure if we have just one strong, healthy baby or two but we will find out on Monday the 6th at our 1st ultrasound and I will be thrilled either way. I am so anxious to see what is going on in there! Other than being very tired in the evenings, I am still feeling good. I'm trying to really take advantage of these last few weeks of feeling good before the m/s hits. That's all I have to report for now. I will update with more exciting news when I have it and of course with our 1st ultrasound pics!!

Pregnant and happy!!

Well, I am definitely pregnant. I had my 2nd beta today. The number is supposed to get close to doubling in about 48 hours. Mine went from 207 on Friday, 9 days past a 5 day transfer to 483 today. Everything is moving along right on track. Maybe a little even better than we expected. J and I are both feeling there is a very good possibility that there could be 2 growing in there. We are very anxious for the 1st ultrasound!

We had a great weekend. My Mom, Grandma, Aunt Angie and Aunt Julie have had a trip planned to come up and visit from Portland for quite a while. It was very ironic that it happened to fall on the weekend of my first beta. I started testing positive on Monday so I was pretty sure I was pregnant all week and I rescheduled my beta for Friday. None of the ladies knew I had done that or that I was pregnant. When they got in on Friday afternoon we went to lunch in Kirkland. I had already gone to the cafe and placed wrapped bottles of Prego spaghetti sauce at each of their seats. They opened them when we sat down and it took them a minute to understand why I was giving them sauce but once it sunk we all shed tears and had a blast the rest of the weekend. It was really fun having them here to share the news.


I'm feeling pretty good so far. I'm exhausted in the evenings and my bum is just so sore it's hard to move around much. It's just getting worse and worse because the muscle isn't healing between shots. We are hoping to be done with these next Tuesday.

My next beta appt is on Tuesday and our 1st ultrasound, when we find out how many we are having, will be at the end of next week (the 3rd or 4th). Here are a few pics from our fun weekend!

Prego!!!

Confession- I have been testing positive since Monday! I changed my beta from tomorrow to today and it came back at 207!! That is a great high #. I AM PREGNANT!!!! Will post more later with details!

Ho...hum...

This is how I feel, kind of like du...da...du. Just a waiting game. I thought you might like an update but I have nothing new to report. I'm really hungry, that's about it in the Vann household. Oh, and Tucker peed on the carpet today. Exciting! While I sit here and worry about our rotten economy I'll give you a pic from our 1st anniversary last week. Beta is on Sat. so of course I'll report then!
