I called my doc today to let them know I am pregnant and see what they want me to do. My nurse Sandy said that they probably wouldn't do any betas on me because the only benefit would be to know if I am going to miscarry right away or not. I have to admit I was kind of relieved....she said that unless I started to cramp or bleed she would just let me live in la la land until my 6 week ultrasound, which will be two weeks from today. To be honest, I would rather live in sweet oblivion than worry myself sick over the numbers right now. This is it for me....no more babies, no more trying...and I guess I would like to just sit back and assume everything is ok. Ignorance is bliss??? I know at this point there's nothing they can do for me if things don't go well, and I am on everything they wanted me on....so all there is to do no matter what is to hope and pray....
So here's to hoping and praying....

I like this doctors approach. each time I got pregnant, I would spend more time worrying about what my beta's would be and never got to enjoy the feeling of "aaaahhh, i'm pregnant".
I like the don't worry about it until you need to worry about it approach.

Ya know, I was thinking today If a miracle happens and I get pregnant again I would not get betas done just so I could enjoy that time instead of being all worried about it. Last time my betas were great and it did not end up ok and I sort of feel I wasted precious time worrying about numbers rather than enjoying the moments...
I hope that all makes sense.

I feelt the same way. I know this is it and I guess I want to just sit and enjoy it. Knowing the numbers won't change the outcome...I just have to have hope... 
Thanks to all you ladies. I love it here so much that I don't think I can ever leave, pregnant or not. I hope you don't mind...your my family here on JM and I don't think any other board could ever replace you all!
