This morning I had my blood testing done and my doctor's office just called me. They said they like for pregnancy hormone levels to be around 100 for the first test. Mine was 763!!! I said to the nurse, "Oh my GOD! I'm having twins, aren't I?" She laughed and said "MAYBE! Or it's one baby with A LOT of pregnancy hormone". Either way, it's very good news. Next week I go back for another blood test and then, in two weeks, I do a blood test and an ultrasound so we can see how many babies are in there.
My boss told me yesterday that I looked a little pregnant in the dress I was wearing (That's right Joy. If you're reading this, you'll know I'm documenting your bad manners!), and my stomach does seem bigger, but I've lost 4 lbs.! I'm only 18 days along, I can't be getting fat, yet!
Anyway, now I can start my pregnancy journal and start looking at baby furniture and not close my door and cry when someone brings their baby into the office! It still doesn't feel real and I don't think I'm going to get much work done this afternoon....:)
About Me
- World's Okayest Mom
- Recently, the guilt of being away from the kids for 11 hours a day to earn just enough money to cover day care and commuting expenses got the better of me. I decided to stay home and care for my children. After a few months, I realized cooking was my only creative outlet and I don't even like cooking. I do like writing, and this had been quite an adventure, so I decided to blog about my experiences.
