I had my beta blood test yesterday.

So, from the results we received… I can’t be certain that there isn’t more than two babies in there. In fact, I’ve convinced myself it’s triplets.

At 9dp5dt – 14 DPO – 4 weeks – my beta was 512 IU/L.

What??

I mean, yeah, I’m pregnant but what?!

When the number sunk in, I could not comprehend because, what?!

That is so high! So, so high! With Oyster, my results were 176 IU/L. This is almost triple Oyster’s levels and I thought Oyster’s was high!

So, I think it’s safe to say that there’s at least two in there, but could there be more?!

One or two very strong babies with strong betas is great, however, we can’t ignore that there is a possibility for triplets or even quads!

I truly believed that our beta levels would be in the 300s, in line with twins because I just knew both had implanted, but for one or both to split? Wow!

I’m not against triplets but I’d be so scared throughout the whole pregnancy. I don’t want to lose any of them. I want to meet all the babies that are inside me.

I have my second blood test on Tuesday, so let’s see what my numbers say then.

Then my six week scan! Will we see one, two, three or four?!

Stay tuned.
