I am super excited to report that it worked! Marcus and I are blessed with a pregnancy! We are awaiting more information from the doctors about things like due dates, upcoming appointments, progesterone shots, etc. So, we don't know much more. I do have to admit we feel pretty silly to be reporting a pregnancy so very early. We technically would be considered 4 weeks at this point. So, we will continue to pray and now can pray for the health and safety of our little embryo that the Lord has given us to grow. Your prayers are so very appreciated and we will continue to accept them as we know how much we need Him.
It scares me to say that my HCG levels are super high! They can't call twins for a few more weeks, but 5-100 is considered good. Higher levels indicate multiples. My level was 423!
My progesterone levels are also good so that means that the baby is clinging to a thick and healthy wall. I'll know later tonight if it is good enough to get me off the shots.
I love you all for loving us so much the past couple of months and am so grateful for the prayers of so many of you. I'll keep everyone updated as we learn more details.
Anna and Marcus
