Blood Tests, Results & Due Date

On September 25th, after 3 positive pregnancy tests, I called my doctor and she had me come in for some blood tests. Their offices were closed on Friday, Sept 26th so I had to wait until Monday, Sept 29th for the results. They were excellent. My progesterone was 27.3 and my beta count was 2232.

My doctor also told me that I was 4 weeks and 6 days pregnant on September 29th and that the baby is due June 2nd, 2009!

My doctor said that I could come in later that week for more blood tests to make sure that my numbers were continuing to increase. So I went back to the doctor's office on Thursday, October 2nd. I received my results on Friday, October 3rd. My doctor told me that my progesterone was 25.7, which is okay that it went down and my beta count was 41,900. Holy cow did that increase! Again, excellent numbers!

9/21/08 - The day we found out we're having a baby

At 6:45 am on September 21st, I took a pregnancy test and found out that I'm pregnant. I had to wake up Mike to tell him, which he looked at the test with one eye open, but we were both so excited no matter how early it was. We were getting up to go to the Bears game that day with some friends. Here is a picture of us at Soldier Field. I don't think we stopped smiling all day. Yeah, we're having a baby!! We have always wanted to be parents and are so glad that our time has finally come!
