Long day but...

Beta #2 is 882! We are taking a deep breath after this news. M and I were both nervous about getting this number, regardless of the first beta. I think we will be nervous until we have a baby in our arms. But we have this good news today and we are enjoying it. We still can not believe I am pregnant. No matter how many times we say it. I suppose it will take some time.

Today we were extras on the set of The Fighter (new Marky Mark film- he will always be Marky Mark to me). It is about a local Lowell, MA boxer Micky Ward. We were in an arena in Lowell today cheering and booing for about 5 hours. We couldn't have cell phones so I knew my results were sitting there in my car waiting to be listened to but it had to wait until the end of the day. It was worth the wait! Being an extra isn't as easy as it looks by the way- we are both exhausted!


Now we wait for the next blood test next Thursday and our first u/s 2 weeks from today. Waiting, waiting and more waiting.... I'm actually glad that I don't have another test until next week. Because I can enjoy my time off and know that I'm doing everything I can to keep this pregnancy going.

That sounds like a great way to distract yourself - being a movie star! Great news on BEta2 - totally freakin' fabulous. I am so happy for you.

Fantastic beta #2!!!! So...are you thinking twins?! We will have our U/S's on the same day. Can't wait! Definitely enjoy this time. I wish we could hang out together and drink cold lemonade!
