Beta Results
Phew, big sigh of relief. Beta today doubled, it's 308! I'm SOOOOO relieved. I have a whole different view of the 2ww now. I can't believe how terrified I am of each appt and how much I need resassurance that this little bean is growing and developing ok! It's just tragic what IF does to us and knowing statistics, odds, etc. can just make us nuts. Next beta is on Tuesday.
In other totally unrelated news, a coworker of mine comes into my office this morning to tell me she is 12 weeks pregnant. Of course I had to ask her how long she's been trying. She tells me they only tried for a month and she was surprised it happened so fast since she is "old" (36). I couldn't help but find all of this very annoying even though I like her and am happy for her. Just another reminder that IF can make us so bitter and unable to be happy for others' lack of struggle.
Thank you all for the reassurance over the last few days and for being here each step of the way. This is soooo hard to manage and I can't imagine doing it without my DS sisters. Love and baby dust to all xoxoxo

YAY!!!!!! Celebrate tonight :) I agree---having had the experience of living beta to beta last year. It is \"the next chapter\" of stress after the 2WW. Waiting for that phone call, etc. But it\'s looking good----I\'m so glad :)))))))))))))))

Yay!! So glad that your numbers are growing!! What a relief!!
As for the annoying co-worker, tell me about it! I announced our peanut on fb last night, and one girl commented about how she knows how awful it is to struggle with IF. She tried for a while with no luck, had some acupuncture and magically got preggo on her own. I kinda wanted to be like, \"bitch, you don\'t know shit!\" lol
