I have managed to hold it together until today, but now I am a bit of a wreck.
With our loss, we had our first u/s at 8 weeks and we never saw a heartbeat. Growth had stopped at 6w1d. So, to me, ultrasounds mean diagnostic testing or bad news. I can't even wrap my head around what good news would feel like.
I am 6w3d today, and I want to be hopeful (I'm trying!), but pgal brain has definitely set in today. I go in this afternoon, and I will update after that.
*Update*
We have a strong heartbeat!! I am officially further along than I have been.
Today, I am pregnant. Today, I am happy.
Thanks again for your good thoughts.
