Milestone week - first appt. went well

Today was my first prenatal appt. and everything went well. I was nervous for the u/s given the subchorionic bleed I had last week but the doctor quickly found the h/b. I am so thankful. The baby doubled in size and is now 9mm. They are monitoring me once a week so I will go in again next Wednesday. This time, I'll be in with the u/s tech since the separation was still noticeable on the u/s.

This is a big week for me. I have never made it past 8w so I hope and pray everything is ok. What have you done during your milestone week to occupy your time besides going to work?

SBVs,

That's great news Kate. I'm glad you had such a great appointment! I don't have any advice on how to get through this difficult week except to keep busy, take care of yourself, and try not to worry!

Kate,

Great news that your little one is thriving... I'm also psyched that your doc is monitoring you so closely -- the added reassurance of weekly check-ups is encouraging!

I'll be thinking of you throughout the next week as you pass your milestone. Wish I had some tips to keep you occupied -- just do what you can to keep busy (dinner out, walks, movies, mani/pedi, call old friends, whatever it takes!).

Hugs,
