Hcg Update!

What a week it has been!

Eric and I are overwhelmed with the amount of love and support we have received since we shared the news. Thank you so much to everyone that has reached out. We feel so blessed.

I have been to the doctor 4 times this past week and a half just for bloodwork to make sure my hcg levels have been rising.

At my first appointment, my hcg was 53! It was a relief to find out via blood test that we were pregnant!

Now you would think that I would be ecstatic about that number but what I have found dealing with infertility, is that it sometimes takes the joy away from happy moments because I am constantly WORRYING over things that I CANNOT CONTROL!

I have been learning to live in the now and be excited for any small victory. I have a long way to go but I am working on it 🙂

SO back to the HCG 😏 our doctor said that it doesn’t matter what your starting number is so long as it’s doubling every 48 hours. So I went back every 48 hours for more bloodwork!

My numbers have been as follows: 1st appt: 53, 2nd appt: 340, 3rd appt: 784, 4th appt: 1997 🥰

We are scheduled for an ultrasound on Wednesday to make sure baby boy implanted in my Uterus and then I think I will be able to breathe a little lol

Prayers and positive thoughts are appreciated!!

I hope everyone is staying safe during this time!

Love, Jess
