Beta Day!

What a day! 

I went for my blood tests this morning only to find that the request form hadn't been sent across. The kind lady took pity on me and did them anyway but I was wracked with nerves all day that my sample wouldn't get processed!

The ladies at work did an amazing job of keeping me calm and distracted all day and I finally got to go home.

When I got home Oscar was a bit upset so it was a while before I actually found out but then Ant waltzed in with a balloon with my beta written on it - 326! Even the nurse he spoke to asked if we had transferred two as that was quite high. Oscar's beta was 261 and we thought that was high so maybe my hormones just kick in quickly! 

Oscar was so excited to learn he was going to be a big brother but is adamant he wants a little sister so he may well end up disappointed. 

We made video calls to my dad, Ant's parents and our best friends Sam and Amy and I filled our other close friends in by way of messages.

This evening we chilled out with pizza and TV and I'm just trying to let it all sink in but I think it'll be a while before I really comprehend the enormity of the situation!
