High Beta Counts!
On Friday, November 28, I went to the hospital to get fluids as a result of a terrible flu. The doctor did several tests, and one was a Beta count. She announced that it was 4700! I've never had a Beta count higher than 600. What good news! The baby is strong and growing!

Pregnancy Test
First message to the little one:
Your father told me, "Before you took the test, I was 100% sure that you were pregnant. Now, I think you probably aren't."
How could a positive test make him say that? Well, the test didn't seem positive. There was one dark pink line and then a second, faint shadow of a line. Three tests later with the same result, I decided to buy a digital test. Yes, you were conceived in a digital age! Everything is digital - from the reading of the gas tank in my Jeep, to our alarm clock, to our camera, to the pregnancy test.
It said only one word:

I repeated this word over and over for two days, getting acclimated to its sound.
