Can nothing about this process be easy?

So I had beta number 2 today.  And it did double.  Thank God for that.  However my numbers are really low.  It is only 30.  That is not good.  I have a third beta scheduled for Wednesday when I get home.  But for now I'm still at my inlaws and everyone is driving me crazy because there is a newborn here and my mother in law and father in law are going gaga over our new nephew.  They have every right to.  And the kid is pretty darn cute.  But we can't announce our news because right now we still do not know if everything will be o.k.   This pregnancy at this point is not strong.  I'm praying hard that my baby decides to stick around for the long haul.  But you never know.

I believe that your little bean will be around for the long haul through poopy diapers, scraped knees, boyfriends/girlfriends, graduations, marriage and then your grandchildren. I may have the faith of a mustard seed but I still believe........

I HOPE so much that everything will be ok. It's such a scary time right now. I'll be reading to find out what's going on. Good Luck!!

Keeping you close to my heart and in my thoughts as you go through this.

I'm hoping with all my might that your little bean sticks around for 9+ months!

C'mon little one. Your mommy and daddy love you and want to meet you. Stick, little one stick!

It is so frustrating to see other people mooning over a baby in your presence. logically you know it is the natural thing to happen but in your heart. Oh the heart.

I hope your beta doubles again. I am adding you to my reader so I can read the (hopefully) good news.

I've always heard that all that matters is that it doubles, and it did!
I hope that everything works out great!

I've heard of many other women having low betas in the beginning, who later turned out to be just fine and have healthy little ones thriving. As long as they double, I wouldn't be too worried about the numbers.

I'm praying for you that the next beta shows better numbers, and I'm wishing lots of "sticky baby vibes" for you.

wishing you always doubling numbers and a strong little one growing steady in your womb.

I pray that your number continue to increase and put your mind at ease. It's never easy and it's even hard, I'm sure, with a baby near by. Good luck!
