This started as a blog about our journey in trying to conceive, IVF, the loss of our little angel, my pregnancy and birth of our twins, and our little surprise munchkin. Now we are all on a journey with the Army. This has become more of an update of our life but if you read from the beginning you will find info about our IVF experiences.

4 weeks and 4 days pregnant!
It feels amazing to say that - I am 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I have waited SO long to say those words. My 2nd beta went well. It was 193 so did a little bit more than double. I don't go in again until July 31st. I get my first ultrasound then as well as more bloodwork. I'm still nervous but definitely excited. Everyday I feel a little better confidence wise. I'm getting more tired each day (yesterday I kept dozing off and I just wanted a nice long nap). I also got up twice to pee last night!! LOL YES - I got excited that I REALLY had to go. I have also been starving. Actually I don't really care much for food at all and then all of a sudden I'm starving and need food then and there. Of course if I eat too much then I feel sick and heartburny. I'll get the hang of all this soon. :-) Almost a week away until we see what is going on down there. Still don't know if it's 1 or 2 but with the hCG levels I'm thinking it's just 1. I have friends who SWEAR it's going to be twins. LOL I would love either although I'm preparing myself for 1. We really did want twins so we're getting used to the idea of just 1 now. I'm not having that horrible cramping anymore. Just little twinges here and there. I have noticed when I get stressed that I do cramp up and I do not like that at all. I try to lay down if possible at that point or at least do deep breathing. I better get some food - baby says time to eat!!! :-)
