TTC after 35

Ultrasound tomorrow 9am

Of course I am terrified.  Last week we just saw what the doctor said was the yolk sac, even though I couldn't really see what he was seeing.  Tomorrow we should see the fetal pole.  I am praying everything is ok & the little one is progressing like it should.  I will be beside myself if something is wrong.  Lately, I've been feeling a greater frequency of cramping.  Nothing doubling over painful, just like the annoying period cramps I used to get.  I do notice they come on stronger when I'm stressed (like now!).  I'm probably making too much of it but I feel like the doctor last week kind of rushed through & glazed over the ultrasound.  The nurse did say it was early so they were pretty much just looking for placement.  I guess we'll know more tomorrow, good or bad.

  • My fingers are crossed that tomorrow is another step in the right direction.  Just remember everything is out of your control right now and you'll just have to trust that this little one is going to be in your arms in 9 months.  I know easier said than done.  I still stress at times.

  • Good luck!
  • Good luck tomorrow.  Sending you some calm down vibes.  I had cramping with my DD too but not with my m/c, so I'm going to say you are probably ok.  I was told that it was ligament stretching.  Also, your ovaries work for the placenta in the beginning so you could be feeling that too. 
  • GL, Vet!  I'd be a hypocrite if I told you not to worry - I'm panicking as I type this about our first u/s next Wednesday!

    I understand your worries, but I just know that everything will turn out perfectly for you and your H!  Please share the good news!

  • Good luck!!
