We have a HEARTBEAT!!

After almost seven long weeks-we have a heartbeat! Everything looks good-"peanut" is measuring right on at 6w5d, all aspects internally looked perfect as well... on to the first OB appt now in 2 1/2 weeks!

U/S and First Appt

So-I heard from "Mary" today-my u/s is scheduled for Sept 28 @ 9am, first OB Oct 17 at 9:30-which is coincidentally Chris' 35th bday! So far, so good!

The results are in...

So-the results are in! My progesterone was 35.5 - which is great! And even though I was praying for at least 2500, and hoping for 3200, my Hcg level was an amazing 5807 ! I am now waiting on the OB coordinator to call with the u/s appt and my first OB appt!

GOD IS SO GOOD!

We have confirmation!

I called the Dr yesterday and went in today to do the bw. Hopefully-they will only need this one draw due to things going well! The best thing about today was the awesome answer to prayer! I had been concerned about taking their test today, since the last 2 pregnancies, I had a slow, faint + result. This time though-even after having water on the way into the office - the + came up nearly immediately! Now I am praying for Hcg levels of at least 2500!!

Official Due Date-May 18, 2008

Well...here we go - AGAIN!!

So-We have found ourselves with yet another pregnancy... I guess I should start at the beginning?? In Jan 2006, Chris and I agreed after a year of prayer, that we should try to add to our family. We began this effort in Feb. After several months of negative results-we finally found ourselves expecting in May, with the baby due in Jan 2007. Well- just 11 short weeks later-after some light spotting, we found out the baby had stopped growing at 6w5d, so I had a D&C, and we began to heal and continued to try. Forward to Jan 2007, and we have another pregnancy-this one would be due mid-Sept 2007 and we were both at peace and excited with this blessing. Sadly-After 2 rounds of Hcg levels, we knew this baby would be in heaven as well. Refusing still to give up and not feeling that was what the Lord was leading us to do, we continued to try, and found ourselves pregnant yet again in June. This time-the numbers rose, but only slightly and I also miscarried that baby - it was due in Feb 2008, on my Mom's bday.

Ok-so now that I have the long, and sad past filled in... let's start with this last week! I found myself horribly sick with a stomach virus-like the rest of my family over last weekend... this messed up my "plan" to check my temperature to see if I would be starting another cycle or not. Well-2 days later-still no new cycle and I pretty much "knew" then, but Chris wanted to wait a week to test. I really think we both just wanted to be past the dates of the last two known early losses. But-since I was taking Prometrium as a precaution - I knew even if things weren't going well-I might not have any visible "signs" for some time due to the meds - so we compromised and I tested today at 20 dpo and saw a beautiful "Pregnant" once again on the test. I will be calling the Dr on Mon...
