4 Week Update

May 18, 2008

I had another appointment on Friday to test certain levels in my blood, to make sure the pregnancy is progressing as planned.  My Beta level on Wednesday was 79.9 and on Friday it was 196…this is great news!


I was looking on the internet today to see what happens at 4 weeks of pregnancy, and it seems that our little baby is forming his or her eyes, arms and legs!!!  Isn’t that the coolest thing ever?!?!  It’s about 1.5 - 2.5 mm in size.


A lot of people are asking me how I’m feeling, and the answer is - GREAT!  I’m pretty tired and a little barfy, but there’s a little baby growing inside of me and I couldn’t be more excited.  Collin is being amazing, as usual.  He’s being extra protective of me, letting me take lots of naps, whenever I can, and making sure I’m drinking plenty of water.  


We have 8 more weeks until we get to the “safety zone” of being past the first trimester.  We’re really praying for this baby to stay strong and to keep growing like it should.  We know that we’re not out of the woods, so to speak, so we’re still asking for lots of prayer for our baby and for me.  


I have another appointment this coming Thursday to test my Beta level again to make sure all of my numbers are rising, so we will definitely keep you posted.
