2nd ultrasound

We had our 7 1/2 week ultrasound Monday and it went really well. Everything is measuring right and we saw a good heartbeat! This has been so encouraging to us. Thank you everyone for your prayers. Our next appointment is in 2 weeks. I am also thankful that Alonna helped me out and got her Dr. to take me even though she is not currently taking new clients. After my appointment in 2 weeks the specialist is finished with me and Alonna's Dr. sounds sympathetic and skilled and she delivers at hospitals I like. It's still hard not to worry sometimes, but it's getting easier. This time around has been much different, including feeling more nauseous, so I'm feeling really good about it. I know all life is in God's hands and I will continue to pray that things go well.

First ultrasound

We had our first ultrasound today. The person who scheduled my appointment unfortunately scheduled me a half of a week too soon so we didn't get to see much. This early on a few days makes all of the difference. So today we saw the sack and the yolk sack, but that's it. Everything we saw is on track, but when you can't see the baby or a heartbeat you can't really know if things are going well. I like the doctor and the nurse practitioner in my office but their medical assistants are either mean, or make appointments too early. Sorry, I'm venting a bit. My next appointment is in a week and a half so we should be able to see the baby and a heartbeat by then. Please remember to keep us in your prayers.
