School and such...

I am enjoying math again. Much more than I thought I would, really. It's making me wonder if I should go for a teaching degree instead! I'm only 1 point short of being at 100% so far, and we're halfway done with the class already. My online writing class is going well, too, although we haven't actually turned in our first paper yet.

In other areas I am hanging in there, mostly working on trying to be HOPEFUL and less of a PESSIMIST. I'm probably going to get myself in trouble here (I'm not supposed to be telling anybody yet) but I got a positive test the other day. Talk about shock! They took my first beta HCG on Monday and it was only 37, so that means either it was shortly after implantation (most likely) or it is going to be another early miscarriage. I am holding out hope that it is just early and the numbers will double like they're supposed to. I have a second blood draw this afternoon at 4:00, and I should have the results of that one by tomorrow morning. Next Thursday they'll have me come in for an ultrasound, though I doubt they would find much besides a sac by that point. Please pray and hope for us!!!

I'm crossing everything and praying for you Becci!! Does Hannah know? Don't be a pessimist you totally deserve this. At 5 weeks they will see something. I had an ultrasound with Kenz at 5 weeks due to bleeding and they could see something and even were able to see her teeny tiny heart beating. I want to hear right away tomorrow!

Yeah Hannah knows. I told her not to tell anyone... but if the numbers come back ok I might not be able to hold it in any longer. I really want to tell people!
