so yesterday was the big day...my 12 weeks apt. and my NT scan (this is the apt. last time where we found out we lsot our daughter so to say the least I was a wreck)....we had the same tech and when we went in she was much nicer then last time...she told em she would look first and then turn the screen to me...the seconds I waited for her to say something felt like eternity but then she said, "oh there is is a wonderfully strong heartbeat" THANK GOD! I was so relieved.

she turned the screen towards us and almost immediately told us that whatever it is they measure ont he back looked good but we would have to wait for the blood work to coem back for the actual results, but she felt confident that it looked good. YEAH AGAIN!

at one point she had to point my stomach to show me something and at that point the baby started to wiggle around and stretch out it's arms and legs.. so cute! it was a great visit. I feel so much better now..I am sure I will continue to worry but my worry has lessened a lot.

we go next week to the genetic councelor so we will get more info then I guess...not really sure.

but bad news...I woke up today with a cold...well I think it is a cold, my cousin said it might just be pregnancy stuffiness and nose running???? but I am going to take it easy today and see what happens tomorrow. does anyone know if I do not take anything and just take it easy will the germs in me affect the baby??/

well thanks for all the support and prayers I don't' know what I would have done without you all. will keep you posted on future progress
