Well, I have been debating on whether or not to post the results on here, but hopefully everyone in “real life” understands how big of a deal privacy is for me with this.
Just got back the results from my beta – hCG was 1079 at 18dpo! The doctor said, “If I hadn’t put the single embryo in there myself, I’d think there were possible two!” So, my numbers are really good, and we’ll be going back on Thursday morning to make sure that they double. I’m currently 4 weeks and 3 days pregnant. Estimated due date is July 25, 2010 – about 18 days after Maddie’s birthday. We pray to have her fraternal genetic twin born one year later in the same month. :)
We are, however, remaining incredibly cautiously optimistic. There’s still so much that can go wrong. We’re praying for our little miracle, though. Thank you so much everyone for all of the wonderful support! I'm off to take another Tums.

Jess, you just made me laugh. :) Thank you so much - I had already gotten the three positive home tests (and have spent today trying not to throw up), but it was just such a relief to hear such a good number. The doctor was just so happy for us - he's just wonderful (called and said that he had some "good news for his favorite patient"). Praying that everything keeps doubling and doubling...!
