Sh*t just got real! 1st "real" u/s

Happy Halloween!  We got the best Halloween treat today and got to see and HEAR our baby's heart beat!  It was a strong 110bpm and we're measuring exactly on track at 6w2d.  I'm so elated, I can't stop crying (at work)!  As soon as I saw the flicker I started crying and the doctor and DH had to yell at me because if I cried we wouldn't be able to hear it lol.  I was so scared after what happened last week and because of my fading and lack of symptoms, I was almost convincing myself that today's results wouldn't be good.  I'm so thankful and feeling blessed that everything is looking awesome!  I was told to make my first OB appointment, so sh*t just got real!  Best Halloween EVER!! :D 
Me 31 ~ DH 30
IVF/FET #1 - BFP!!

    Amazing amazing day! The u/s is so much fun. Do you get another before you graduate?
    | Married since 2008 | DH and I: Both 30 | Me: Endometriosis and Carrier of an X-Linked Dominant Genetic Disorder | DH: Low Morph | Planning IVF with PGD and PGS in 2013 | Freeze-All IVF #1: March 2013 ER 3/26. 29R, 12M, 11F. 4 5AA frozen blasts. Freeze-All IVF#2: May 2013 ER 5/15. 31R, 21M, 20F. 6 5AA frozen blasts. Our PGD probe was completed in late June (total of 20 weeks to develop). PGD and PGS Results came on 6/19: 3 healthy embryos (normal chromosomes and unaffected by my family's genetic disorder). FET #1: July 2013 Natural Cycle - Cancelled due to insufficient lining (only got to 7.5mm). FET #1.2: August 2013 - Medicated Cycle with Lupron & Estrogen Patches to build up lining. Single embryo transfer was 8/23. Beta #1: 240! Beta #2: 578! U/S on 9/19 at 6w4d: We saw the heart beating at 131bpm. Second U/S on 10/4 at 8w5d: We saw the heart beating at 178bpm. EDD 5/11/2014

    RosyGlow Yes, I get two more actually :-)  The next two Thursdays they'll do repeat bloodwork and u/s to make sure things are looking good before I'm off to my OB.  Though, I was told to make and I have made my first OB appointment....that was fun!  I was actually surprised that they were able to get me in so quickly.
