Success after IF

1st ultrasound

 
One beautiful sac with a perfect little yolk sac. 
 
We go back in a week to look for a heartbeat (at 6w2d).  I wasn't nervous about this morning's appointment, but I bet I'll be shaking in my boots at that one.  Eek!
 
My RE suggested that with my history (3 chem pgs and m/c twins at 9w) that it's not a bad idea to see a high risk OB.  I don't disagree.  She gave me a list to choose from - I can't believe I'm going to need an OB soon!  And although they generally take IVF patients off PIO (but stay on the suppositories and estrogen patches) after seeing a heartbeat she was 100% fine with me sticking it out with the PIO.  I love a doctor who understands her patients and who does what they can to keep them comfortable and confident.
 
I know I'm only 5w (and 2 days!) and that we have a long way to go, but I just feel so full and fortunate.  We're so lucky.

Re: 1st ultrasound

  • yay for such amazing milestones!!!!! 
    Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!
