Already an overachiever

Hello Baby,

Today was another good day in the life of Mommy and Baby. I went back to the doctor's office this morning to take my second beta test and instead of my levels increasing by 60%, which is normal, you exceeded expectations and more than doubled! What does this mean? Well, your daddy thinks that maybe there's another one of you inside me, even though on Saturday, Nurse Liz said no. But we can't rule him out because he's a betting man and he guessed today's beta would be 379 and it was 376. Pretty darn close. So, let's see what our beta is on Monday and if there's another one of you, then rock on! I just think it means you are trying your little hardest to stay. It makes me so happy knowing that you want to be a part of our family. Keep up the good work, Baby!

I don't exactly understand how they figure out the day you will grace us with your presence, but my due date was off... I get to meet you even sooner, whoo-hoo! We're looking forward to your arrival on 3/27/11. I don't care if you're on time, early or late, come when you're ready - all I hope is what every parent hopes for - a healthy, smart, beautiful and bouncy bundle of joy. Until then, I'll take good care of you, my lil peanut.

On Wednesday, we go for an infusion to fortify my body to be baby-friendly. It won't hurt either of us, well if they have a hard time getting the needle in me, it'll hurt me for sure, but don't worry, I'm used to it. Since all I want is to protect you and keep you safe inside me, I'll deal with the pain.

I hope you felt the good vibes today here in the outside world - you even got a hug from Dr. Z... we knew he could do it! Him, his staff, everyone at Dr. Contro's office, Alison and Petra are cheering you on, along with your loving parents.

Rah rah rah! Grow grow grow!
