Beta...(warning)

Beta was 166.9! Doctor and nurse said this was an excellent number, so I'll go with that! Has not sunk in yet and I found out 2 days ago... Next beta is on Monday. This journey has been so long and arduous. I can't believe this has finally happened after 2 years. I refuse to get too worried about next beta or ultrasound. Must proceed with positivity because we all deserve this happy ending. 

The ladies on here have been so supportive to me during this past year. Thank you!
