"I got my Beta Back Beta Back Beta Back Beta Back Beta Back Beta Back!"

We went in this morning to get our 2nd beta count. Our first count was 235...so they take your blood two days later to make sure the pregnancy is viable and progessing. They want to see it increase at least 60% within those two days. They told me they would call me by 12:00 and at 12:05 my phone rang. I was with both my sisters. Before I answered the phone I prayed...But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.-Matthew 6:33. Now let me share with you why I did this. My brother in law's mother told me that this is all I need to do and remember. Starting that day I prayed it every day. The 1st day after my "group prayer" at my house when I read my daily reading out of the daily devo that was given to me...it was this scripture! There were 3 important, nerveracking phone calls that I would be recieving in this process. 1) whether or not any embryos were fertilized-I prayed this when my phone rang with the call and the answer was "10 fertilized!!" 2) whether or not I was pregnant-I prayed this when my phone rang and the answer was..."your pregnant with a great number!!" 3) whether or not my counts were rising as they should to show a viable pregnancy-today when my phone rand I prayed this and the answer was..."your magic number is 485!!! We don't need to see you until 3 weeks on April 5th so we can see the heartbeat or heartbeats :) !" It more than doubled!!! I'm speechless!!!!!!! Thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus! Let my glory shine through!!!


Here is a short clip of Dustin toasting with the family of Grandad (Granny, Dustin's dad and mom, and his sisters, our nieces, and me) shortly after we told them we were pregnant. We were on an emotional roller coaster, but it was so nice to go back and share the great news at a time like this. I know Grandad was "toasting" with us! You may need to stop the music at the bottom so you can hear.
