Beta up!

I decided for my peace of mind that I wanted to do another blood test on Thursday to make sure my Beta numbers were still increasing. So, I went and drew blood again. The nurse called as we were in the car driving to Michigan and said my numbers were still good. They were over 5,000 now. WOW!! She said my numbers are high enough to suggest I am further along than they originally thought so they would like to move my sono up. They moved the sono to THIS coming Wednesday (May 27th). ;o) So Wednesday at 230 I will get to see my little baby for the first time. I hope that it isn't too early for a heartbeat... I just googled and you may be able to "see" a heartbeat at 5 weeks but usually don't "hear" it yet. I just want to see the little bean. With my numbers so high and so fast Clay and I have wondered if we could possibly be having more than one little one. Guess we will just have to wait and see. I think Clay is a bit scared at the idea of more than one but I'm open to it. (Although looking online now, I am still in the 5 week range that appears to go up to 7,000 so I have no clue.) We also talked about how far I can really be. In all honesty with my last cycle starting on April 15th, I really can't be any further than 5wk2day right now and 6wk when I go next Wed for the sono. It will be interesting to see what they say. I can't wait to see my little one. I'm still in a bit of shock over this whole thing. When will it really sink in?
