After all the nerves about the first appointment it went great. My doctor took tons of time with us. I had an internal ultrasound and was able to see (one) sac and the flicker of a heart beat. Based on my last period and the size of the sac my estimated due date is July 20. It was hard going into the room and seeing the ultrasound machine, since the last time they used one of those on me was when they discovered my little boy was gone. But my husband was right there with me and we got through it. I also started having bouts of morning sickness yesterday and today which made this all feel a little more real. Thank you for all of your kind words yesterday. I am so thankful for this supportive community. You ladies are awesome
