Well today I am 9 weeks, and we had a scare this morning. Before school today I discovered a little bit of spotting. I paniced and called my doctor immediately and they told me to come in. So I did and man was I a wreck. DH doesnt have a cell phone so I couldn't call him, so I sat there alone, crying in the car and doc office thinking the worst and being so mad and jealous that I couldn't carry a baby to save my life. So, they were able to squeeze me in for an ultrasound.
Guess what! baby is fine! They said he/she is growing perfect, heartbeat was 180, and he/she was wiggling all over the screen and even waved at me! I cried when I saw the flicker of the heart, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. They looked around at other things trying to find the reason for the spotting and they couldn't find one. They said everything still looked perfect. Hallelujah!
They encouraged me to take the prometrium they prescribed me two weeks ago, and I felt like a total idiot for ignoring the prescription for so long. My next appt is scheduled for 12 weeks and they said to just play it day by day but they dont see anything pointing to an impending miscarriage. I am still very nervous about it. I've felt a lot of pressure in my uterine area and though it's probably just growing pains, I'm terrified. So far though, no spotting since this morning. Lets hope it stays that way! Anyways, enjoy the pics. Baby is measuring 9weeks 1day and 2.38cm! Heartbeat was 180...I'm really thinking girl.
I also told DH's mom and dad about it. so far it had been a secret, but we needed all the prayers we could get so I told them.
