Wow. Here's a recap of yesterday....
I went to the lab at Kaiser and had my blood drawn at 8am. The paperwork from UCSF said to run the test "STAT" and then fax them the results. UCSF would notify L and she'd let me know. I asked Kaiser how long it should take and they said they'd have the results to UCSF within the hour. So needless to say, my morning was spent staring at my phone, willing it to ring. I drank a ton of water in the morning and I was so nervous to leave my phone long enough to go use the restroom!
Finally, around 10:30 I get a call from UCSF asking which lab I went to because they still don't have the results! I gave her a number for the Kaiser lab and she went off on a mission to track down the test.
And then I got the call from L! I am "very" pregnant! My beta number (the quantitative measurement of the pregnancy hormone in my blood) was high which may indicate twins.... but we won't know, and therefore won't freak out, until the ultrasound on May 24th.
I'm so happy for my IP's!
Wishing and hoping and Praying it all goes smoothly from here on out! So happy you are able to provide such a precious gift (or two) to a couple who has longed for a child (or two) :)
