(Less)Fertile Frank Report

Mrs. Beans had another beta yesterday, 1,307 so she seems to be doubling down appropriately.

Our pregnancy scan (Yikes! Why can't they just call it a regular old ultrasound) is scheduled for next Monday. The nurse said, "Schedule it for Monday or Tuesday, whatever you feel like."

Are you serious? I want to camp out in the hospital lobby on Sunday night and tailgate with mocktails and BBQ. Unfortunately, we had to settle for an afternoon appointment.

Finally, I just wanted to pass on a word of thanks from the both of us for your support and excitement. I know that thus far we have been very fortunate. I also wanted to give a special thanks to those who shared our cycle and were not as lucky, but still took the time to congratulate us. I thought this was exceptionally generous and want you to know that our hearts go out to you.

wow, great second beta number! Yahoo!! Is Mrs. Beans feeling good or is she starting to get 1st trimester symptoms. Maybe not this early yet, but soon enough the little one will be sucking her energy and she will "feel" (AKA sick and tired) pregnant! Oh, this is so wonderful!!

My husband and I just recently started reading your blog. You give a great man's perspective and humor to the whole Infertility roller coaster that he and I both appreciate. Congratulations on your numbers we will pray for Mary Kate and Ashley as well as you and Mrs. Beans. Keep the posts coming, keep the humor alive, and God Bless you and the Dr's.

I just found your blog. I LOVE it, I read your description of your "deposit" to my dh, and he laughed so hard he practically cried.

Fingers crossed for the Bean family!
