Well, I just got home from our 1st appointment and ultrasound, and it was so wonderful. My doctor was still delivering a baby when I arrived so we started with the u/s first. I got in that room, and I started tearing up cuz I was so scared that we wouldn't see a hb. It was the same ultrasound tech as last time, and she was so nice. She explained that she would first look around and then start explaining what she saw...well it didn't take long and she said that we had a baby with a heart beat!!!! Now, I'm crying cuz I'm so happy :) He/She was so cute...looked just like a little kidney bean and we could see it's little arms and legs. Out little bean was wiggling around, kicking and flapping it's little arms. It was so cute. I'm 8w4d today, and the baby was measuring 9 weeks and had a hb of 170 bpm, which the tech said was really good!!!
After that, I had my full blood work done, and then waited for the doctor to get back. She said that the u/s looked really good, but she still wanted me to see a perionatal specialist due to some lab work results I had in the past to see if there was any reason for the multiple m/c's. It was discovered that I have a high amount of S protein which can lead to blood clotting issues. She said she just wants to be on the cautious side, but this might get me an extra u/s, so I'm all for that!!!
Anyway, I am just happy as can be right now. Also, I want to thank all of the ladies who have been here supporting me. This is such a great group of people we have, and I don't know how I'd get through this without you :)
