We have a heartbeat!

Okay, I know I posted my BFP and then never really posted again. Because of my previous losses it hasn't really sunk in that maybe the third time really is the charm for me. Trust me though, I've been lurking alot! I promise I'll try to be more supportive in the coming days, weeks, and months!

Anyway, today was my 1st prenatal. I scheduled an ultrasound with it because I wanted some reassurance that I'm in this for the long haul. Of course, my OB's office called this morning and said that the ultrasound tech was out sick today. I almost had a heart attack! The scheduler said she could try to get me into the radiologist's office downstairs from them for an ultrasound but most likely they would be full. I told her to go ahead and try and that I was still planning to come in for the prenatal. She called me back about 2 minutes later and they were able to get me in! YAY! So, I went to the prenatal (which was fine) and then had about an hour to wait. I got into the radiologist place and they did a transvaginal ultrasound. It was so cool! And we saw that beautiful little flicker of a heartbeat! Baby was measuring a couple days ahead of what I had thought - 6w5d instead of 6w3d - so that's good too! Because I'm a lunatic and don't want to wait 4-5 weeks for the next appointment, I now go back in 2 1/2 weeks to see my regular OB (who I LOVE!).

Overall it was just such a great appointment! I'm on top of the world right now! :)
