Only one tiny bean, measuring perfectly for my dates, with a beautiful little flicker of a heartbeat. No explanation for the high beta, but I'll happily take one healthy baby.
I don't give up much during pregnancy. I've spent nearly 10 years being pregnant and/or nursing a baby so it'd be pretty crazy for me to never indulge in my favorite things. I of course give up alcohol and ibuprofen but that's about it....
I told my kids right away, only because I can't bear to keep anything from them. I just sat them all down on the couch and told them, and asked them all what they thought about it. I got mixed reviews, but they seem to be accepting it....
Things are going great with SHPG and I. We had a great talk today and we're both happy with where our relationship is going. His reaction was a little shocked/scared at first but he's totally on board now. We had a wonderful lunch date...
