Define: Mavis: Step By Step, Day By Day

Well, I had my Beta blood test and my number was a 644. So I am OFFICIALLY preggo according to the docs. For anyone that isn't familiar with beta numbers that, it's pretty high for a single baby. So there may be two or it might be just one REALLY healthy baby... Yikes for two. I have had my second blood test (7 days later) and it was 3434. Showing steady growth BUT maybe not as rapidly as twins. These are all assumptions that I make based on other people's stories. For all I know there are eight in there and I will be banished from society like that Octo-lady.

Currently I am dealing with a boat load of side effects. I can't say that it is from being pregnant as I am sure it is from the crap-ton of meds in my system.

1- ALWAYS exhausted. I could sleep right now in fact. I also enjoy sleeping under my desk on a regular basis. In the morning I feel amazing. At around 10-11 am, I feel like death. That lasts until 8:30 pm and then I absolutely must sleep.

2- Slightly nauseas. Nothing ginger ale and small meals doesn't cure. This was happening before the transfer, so I will assume it is meds. It's just getting slightly worse, but so far I have held it together... for the most part.

3- Body temperature. At night (right after shots) I sweat. Bad. My poor husband. :-( During the day- FREEZING. At work I usually have a cardi, a scarf and a jacket. It's 78 degrees outside and THAT is my outfit.

All in all I am excited to get off the meds. Also thrilled to have the ultrasound. That is next week. That's when we will know how many are in there... As of today, 5 weeks an 4 days along... CRAZINESS!
