Our little blueberry has a heartbeat and is actually growing! Ryan insists it's a boy. I honestly don't have any impressions either way, but the more he refers to the blueberry as a boy the more I become convinced it is too. Only time will tell!Typically I would go in for another ultrasound at week 8 if I had conceived through fertility treatments. Dr. K said I could go ahead and do this if I want to. I'm tempted, but I want to treat this as a normal, healthy pregnancy, which means waiting until week 12 to get another ultrasound. I hope I can hold out and keep my anxiety and my "need to know" at bay.
Until then I can revel in the other confirmations of pregnancy that things are progressing normally: the morning/afternoon/evening sickness, the total exhaustion, the thirst. My boobies are getting slightly bigger, but they are not sensitive yet. I think I'd be okay with it if they don't ever get tender.
I'm not trying to plug for this T.V. I just LOVE this song and the beautiful cinematography of the bouncy balls.
I am so excited for you! I can't hold it in!! I would say go ahead and get the 8 week ultra sound. Why not. I LOVED getting all mine with Cairo because it just made me feel closer to him because I could watch him grow. And when else are you going to get this chance. I am sad for my next one because I don't know if I am going to get all that I did last time with Cairo. I think I might miss it. I had a heartbeat listener thing at my house. So I would sit in my room just listening to him. I wont have that again I don't think. Any way! I am excited and can't wait for you to start showing!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, nothing beats seeing that first healthy ultrasound! Glad lil' Blueberry is getting nice and cozy.
ReplyDeleteagain, congratulations! every time I hear that little heartbeat inside, my own heart skips a beat and a breath another sigh of relief. I think of you often and wish you the very best!! hang in there with the nausea, it's such a love/hate relationship. and the smells? awful! a gentle "excuse me" and a ziploc bag has saved my life (or at least my social reputation) in many a situation. Good luck and keep us all posted!
