xp: First u/s yesterday

thebeadinglady · February 2012

My internet is down for some reason at home so I haven't been able to post my update till now. I was incredibly nervous before the u/s yesterday. I really thought I was going to throw up the whole drive down. But everything turned out great! I have one little jelly bean taking up residence in my ute right now. It was measuring 6w, 6days (1 day ahead of where I was yesterday) and had a heart rate of 128. The RE said everything looked perfect! I cried like a baby when he listened to the heartbeat, it was actually kinda funny because I was crying so hard it kept moving the baby around and he would lose the heartbeat for a second. He had to tell me to hold still so he could get enough to measure. DH and I are insanely happy!

I get to stop my steroids and estrogen supps now, so that is nice. And they are switching me to supp progesterone instead of the PIO since I was getting huge red welts from the injections. Not a fan of doing 3 suppositories a day, but I'll do what ever I have to.

Here is a crappy cell phone pic of our little jelly bean:
