Labor Day. I'm working.

We are having company today for Labor Day and my brother and mom's birthday today. I'm feeling very queasy(which I hope is a good sign) and I have to start cooking soon. This should be fun...hahaha. This weekend has been busy catching up with work, cleaning and shopping. So much for relaxing. My husband is preparing for surgery next week. They need to remove a bump in his throat that has caused him to become hoarse. Keep him in your prayers.

Hello, I have been reading your blog for awhile now, but never commented before.:) I am actually going through the same thing as you, but recently got some good news as you did because my levels jumped up too! Yes, and I was on prometrium too and it made me so queasy and sick, this might be why you feel so nauseous? Many prayers where said to St. Gianna and I KNOW she has helped me. I will pray for you and your little one.:)

Hello again, I hope you are feeling better. You may be getting this comment twice because I had some computer problems and I'm not sure if I sent the last one:)
I wrote about my experiences with early pregnancy and miscarriage on my blog if you would like to read it.

I am 7 weeks along. I had an ultrasound last week and was able to see the baby's heartbeat which of course is very comforting. How far along are you? If you are at least 6 weeks along they could do a scan, which a scan is always more conclusive and reliable then just checking HCG levels. Has your OB mentioned it? But I wanted to tell you that some women's levels are just low. The range of "normal" HCG levels is so wide. I have heard of many women who have low levels in early pregnancy but go on to have healthy full term babies. Trust me, I know so much how hard it is. It's still hard for me now too. But what helps me is that I remember that God wants to take care of this little child inside me even MORE than I do! How amazing, try to trust in him as much as you can! And I will keep trying to, just know that you are not alone! Take care and rest! (If at all possible with other children keeping you busy:)

I just saw your baby ticker and it looks like our due dates are only 6 days apart! You should really request an ultrasound you are far along enough where you could do it. The doctor was able to measure my little one and see how fast his heart is beating! Isn't it amazing that this early their little heart has already begun beating!

Awwwwww - I just looked over and see that your beebee is floating around in his little home.

I can't wait to see ultrasound of him - you MUST get the 4D ultrasound. So we can use paintbrush to put little Christmas hats on him, and rosaries in his hand, etc.

And Mrs. L, I will keep your little one in my prayers, too.
Stay close to St. Gerard - he LOVES babies.

I don't think they will do the 4D if they get one next week. I don't want to go in too early and not get a heartbeat on the screen and panic. I'm really trying to relax and just be joyful that I am pregnant after such a long wait.
