Dear Baby Howell,
Well I went to the doctor again this morning and my results are of course normal, 647. You are growing and developing at warp speed. I am still a little uncomfortable and you are giving me indigestion like nothing else but these symptoms just remind me that you are okay! While I was at the doctor today I ran into one of my other friends Tracy, who is also pregnant. She is having a very special ultrasound today, she gets to find out what she is having. I am going to her house this evening for a revealing party, not her being revealing but her revealing if the baby is a boy or a girl. I look forward to that day with you!

We love you already,
Mom

Dear Baby Howell,


Today I am feeling anxious because I am having some stomach discomfort. I am sure you are fine but I am still worried. I have a friend Allison at work who is currently pregnant with twin girls and she tells me I am fine. She tells me if I am to ever be as big as her, I must feel discomfort. To be sure I have called the nurse to schedule another appointment to have my levels checked again. She says I can go in the morning.



We love you already,


Mom

Dear Baby Howell,
After an anxious weekend Monday is finally here! I found out today that my levels are up to 163. This is great news because this means you are growing and developing. Today after talking with the nurse she told me that on July 11 we get to have an ultrasound so we can see your heartbeat. We will also visit with the doctor because I am sure your father will have TONS of questions to ask him. I thought this past weekend was long, July 11th feels forever away. We cannot wait to see your tiny heart beat!

Also, a friend at work told me today that she is pregnant. She and I are due on the exact same day. We are looking forward to both being pregnant at the same time!

We love you already,
Mom

Dear Baby Howell,
Your father and I received long awaited great news today, we are 4 weeks pregnant with you! Today is a very exciting day but we are scared as well. We are scared because my hcg levels are only 48 which is a little low. The levels are not terrible results but still as your father says we will be "optimistically cautious". I will go to the Doctor again on Monday to have more tests done. Monday feels so far away but for now, we will hope for good news.

We love you already,
Mom
