Second Ultrasound

Here is a pic of our little one. The head is on the bottom left. We also got to hear the heartbeat!! Such a wonderful sound. We are so happy right now. Due date is officially June 1st.

First Baby Pic

So this is a little late but here is an ultrasound pic from last Wednesday. You can't really see much but that's okay! I am hoping that we can get some better pics at our ultrasound this Friday.

A perfect little heartbeat

We saw the baby today for the first time. We could see right away that it had a perfect little heartbeat that the doctor said was over 100, which is great. The doc said everything looked wonderful and we are officially done with the fertility clinic. Our next appointment is a week from this Friday with my regular OB. We will be having another ultrasound then and if all is well I think we will then officially announce the pregnancy to everyone. My doctor today said that seeing a heartbeat definitely lowers the chance of miscarriage but that it lowers again at 8 and 11 weeks. He said if we get to 8 weeks and everything looks good we should feel pretty safe. Big sigh of relief today. Is this actually happening??????

6 days and counting....

until the big day!!

Other than anxiously awaiting the ultrasound things are good. A little nausea but nothing to complain about (i love feeling a little sick as it makes me feel like this is actually happening). I have been so tired and my boobs are sooooo sore. I was pretty crampy earlier this week but it seems to be subsiding a bit as of late. I go back and forth from being the happiest girl in the world to being the most scared I have ever been. I just want to see a little beating heart on Wednesday and I think I will start to believe this is actually happening.

Beta #2

Beta #2 = 1336

Soooooooooooooo happy. From my calculations from my first beta it should have been right around 1150 if it was doubling every 48 hours. So I am absolutely thrilled with that number!!! Now the count down begins to next weeks ultrasound. I cannot wait to see my little one's heart beat!!!

9 days until ultrasound.................

Will I Ever NOT worry???

So today is 4 weeks 5 days pregnant and I am a nervous wreck. I just keep wondering if this is really it? Will I really get my baby? I am so nervous and then I start feeling awful because I am stressing out and I worry that my stressing out is bad for the baby and we go round and round. I just keep thinking on Sunday I will be 5 weeks, on Monday I will get my second Beta, on October 8th I will see my baby's heartbeat. I love this little thing so much. Please wish us luck!

SO HAPPY

Beta #1 = 93

I am totally happy with that number. I am 4 weeks 1 day pregnant plus I ovulate a little late normally. So I am around 12 to 14dpo, which makes that number wonderful! My doctor was happy with it and said to just continue to do the normal protocol which is to come in next Monday for another blood test to make sure everything is still increasing and then my first ultrasound is scheduled for October 8th. How am I going to wait until October 8th???? I am so happy right now. I can't believe this is actually happening!!!
