8 Week Ultrasound

Well the morning started off in the rain, and while on the way to the Dr. we saw Sheena at an accident scene on the highway. Good work out there officer Parsons, be safe.
Everything looks good at the doctor. The measurements show the baby is growing right on track. This weeks pictures are not as good as last time but you can definitely tell he/she is much bigger. We have an appointment at the OBGYN on June 6th. It will be a long 3 weeks!

Baby's First Ultrasound

Today was our first ultrasound. After an HOUR wait the Dr finally came in (woke us up from our nap)! We have one baby measuring right on track. The Dr. said that everything looks to be going well. The size of the baby is at 6 weeks 4 days and I am really 6 weeks 5 days but that is well within the expected range. The heart rate is at 124bmp. That is great for this stage and it should go up then come back down to a baby's speed. Then he turned the sound on for the heartbeat and I was very surprised to get to hear that already. They must have some very good sonogram machines. Rann is very good a recreating the sound of the heartbeat for me! I go back next Wednesday for the next ultrasound.... so here is one of the pictures from today!

Ultrasound Scheduled

Just wanted to update since I have not posted anything lately. We had another blood test on Friday the 18th (2 days later) and it was 407 so that was pretty much a perfect double in 48 hours which is right on track. Then we had another test on the following Wednesday the 23rd (I had figured it should be about 2400) it was 2700ish so again right on track and then some. We are scheduled for our first ultrasound May 5th in the afternoon so I will post after that with hopefully a picture!
I have felt pretty good so far... some days I am really tired and others I feel fine.... I don't sleep well at night lately I am sure it has something to do with anxiety and the dreams about sonograms! I have felt nauseous a few times most days just for a couple of minutes and nowhere near needing to actually get sick.
Hurry Up May 5th!!

We are pregnant!

Today was the magic day!!! Our pregnancy test came back positive!!! The beta number is 194!! The like for it to be above 20, but anything above 5 is pregnant..... I was thinking 80ish to 150ish meant one baby and 200-300ish meant twins..... so now the big question is one or two!!! I get another check on Friday to make sure the number is rising correctly so maybe I will have a better idea by then!!

Pregnancy Test Day is Coming!

We will be having our beta (Blood Pregnancy Test) on Wednesday the 16th and the days can't seem to move fast enough. I have counted and recounted them so many times! I have had some pregnancy symptoms but they are all also very common side effects from the progesterone I am still taking so who knows whether they are caused by that are a real live pregnancy! Hmmmm..... Only 3 more days to go!! Or wait if I go to bed now it will be 2 more days then, right? Good Night!

More Embryos to Freeze

The embryologist called today, and they were able to freeze all 6 remaining embryos. That gives us 9 that are frozen, 2 are rated AA, 2 are rated AB, and 5 are rated BB. Strange to think about...
