Pregnant after a Loss

Heard the heartbeat

My husband and I went in for our eight week appointment.  Everything is great with the baby.  We had an ultrasound, and got to hear the heartbeat!  And, luckily, he gave me a prescription for Zofran so I hope it helps with my 24 hour nausea.

  • I'm so incredibly happy.  I had such a sigh of relief when I heard the heartbeat.  I think I'm finally getting in that place where I can rest assured and just enjoy this pregnancy.  Sure, things could still go wrong, but something about the heartbeat let me know it's all going to be okay.
