First Beta(updated)

So I just got back from the Fertility Specialist to get my first Beta done.  So now I wait.  I feel so excited and so at peace.  I know my numbers are going to be fantastic.  I can not wait to hear from them.

I haven't really had any "pregnancy symptoms" yet except slightly tender breasts and bloating.  

I did find out that most likely my Fertility Specialist will be doing an ultrasound within the next two weeks.  They normally like to check things out before they send you to your obgyn.

So later this evening I will put an edit on here with my Beta information.  Until then.


Edit:
 I got a phone call from the Dr while I was at work.  Thankfully I was not with a client so I grabbed the phone and ran out into the hall.  The nurse said: Congratulations Devin you are most certainly pregnant.  Your Beta # is 566!  I was estatic!  We are having a baby and it's now DR official.  So on Monday I will go back in for my second Beta test to make sure the numbers are doubling then by the end of next week they will try to have me in for our first ultrasound.  They said we wont see much on the first ultrasound but we will get to see the pregnancy in the uterus.  I am so excited.  

I have a feeling things aren't going to be kept very quite and secretive at work.  I turned around to go into back into the salon and EVERYONE I had already told was standing there in the door smiling and asking for info.  Then when I was putting a shipment away that came in one of them ran up to me and yelled at me for picking up heavy things(which I did not pick up by the way) and how I can't pick up heavy things right now.  This was in front of people so yeah I'm thinking I wont be able to keep it secret for very long.

I just want to be able to make it to 6 weeks or the ultrasound before we start spreading the news.  I'm really excited to tell Isaac's parents.  That's what I'm so looking forward to with the ultrasound.  The go ahead forward to tell them.

I haven't been feeling super pregnant.  I am just starting to get nauseous after I eat.  But thankfully if I drink plenty of water it seems to subside.  

We will be going away tomorrow for the weekend so I wont be posting anything till after my Beta Monday.  

God I thank you that you have heard my cry.  I feel like I can cry out with all the women of faith in the Bible whom were barren and you opened their wombs and say this is the child that I prayed for!

Psalm 40

I waited patiently for the Lord;
    he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
    out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
    and gave me a firm place to stand.
He put a new song in my mouth,
    a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the Lord
    and put their trust in him.

Blessed is the one
    who trusts in the Lord,
who does not look to the proud,
    to those who turn aside to false gods.[b]
Many, Lord my God,
    are the wonders you have done,
    the things you planned for us.
None can compare with you;
    were I to speak and tell of your deeds,
    they would be too many to declare.

Sacrifice and offering you did not desire—
    but my ears you have opened[c]
    burnt offerings and sin offerings[d] you did not require.
Then I said, “Here I am, I have come—
    it is written about me in the scroll.[e]
I desire to do your will, my God;
    your law is within my heart.”

I proclaim your saving acts in the great assembly;
    I do not seal my lips, Lord,
    as you know.
10 I do not hide your righteousness in my heart;
    I speak of your faithfulness and your saving help.
I do not conceal your love and your faithfulness
    from the great assembly.

11 Do not withhold your mercy from me, Lord;
    may your love and faithfulness always protect me.
12 For troubles without number surround me;
    my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see.
They are more than the hairs of my head,
    and my heart fails within me.
13 Be pleased to save me, Lord;
    come quickly, Lord, to help me.

14 May all who want to take my life
    be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
    be turned back in disgrace.
15 May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”
    be appalled at their own shame.
16 But may all who seek you
    rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
    “The Lord is great!”

17 But as for me, I am poor and needy;
    may the Lord think of me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
    you are my God, do not delay.
