Houston, We Have a 3rd Beta and an Ultrasound Date!
Just a very quicky post to update the beta trajectory. Had my third beta yesterday morning. Funny story: I got up super early, as the lab at my clinic is only open 6:30-8:15am every morning. I get there and it was literally standing room only. I've never seen so many people in … Read More »
