Feb. 24th U/S update


Our little bean measured exactly 6 weeks 3 days, which is right on for when I ovulated (late to the Dr's date because I OV'd late).


Heartrate was 129...and we couldn't see much since it was so early...so anxious to see this baby in April!!!

February 23rd

My U/S is tomorrow. I'm so nervous, scared, excited, anxious...ugh. We had a perfect heartbeat last time and still lost our baby...so I don't think this will give me any relief tomorrow. The first week of April I'll be out of the 1st trimester...I think that's when I'll feel safe.

I had a horrible nightmare last night that we were getting our U/S done, and their was a cyst on the baby's head, just like we saw at 10 weeks last time with our angel baby. It was horrible. I will be earlier this time, and so I'm afraid even if there is something to spark concern the Dr. won't see it on the U/S because the baby is so tiny at 6-7 weeks. Based on the Dr.'s wheel I'm going to be 7 weeks 3 days tomorrow. Based on when I ovulated (I charted on fertilityfriend.com) I think I'll be 6 weeks 4 days. So as long as the baby is measuring between these dates all is good.

Hoping March goes by VERY quickly.

February 12th

Went back to the Dr. Had the routine first OB bloodwork drawn, and then had another beta check. I asked the dr. to do this. I was at 2189 at 20 dpo!!! My Dr. wants to see me on the 24th for an ultrasound!!! I'm so ecstatic!!!!!!!!

February 6th

Went back in to have beta's drawn. This was 14 dpo. My levels were 96!!!

February 4th

First Dr. appt. Had my beta levels drawn...I was a 28 on 12 dpo
http://www.betabase.info/ show's that that level is in the norm. The number doesn't really matter, it's whether or not it doubles...I also had my progesterone checked...it was at 30, which the Dr. said is really great! I feel like I could be an OB at this point...

February 3rd

We got a BFP!!! Praying around the clock this baby is healthy!!
