I'm stepping over

I know some of you know me from GP, but I wanted to intro myself here. My name is Lizzie, and I got my bfp 3 weeks ago today. I have a history of early loss, and have been with my RE for weekly visits since I found out, and today I got to see our little bean's heartbeat. Out of the four times I've been pregnant, this is the first time I've seen and heard a heartbeat, so this is huge for me.

I wasn't charting this cycle, but I'm measuring at just over 6 weeks. I probably won't be putting a ticker up until after my appointment next week, just in case the heartbeat today was some weirdo fluke.

If you want to know anything else about me, feel free to ask. I look forward to getting to know you all better.

    Um, in all the excitement, I forgot to ask. If I'm just over 6 weeks, then it should be at the end of Sept/beginning of Oct. I'll find out next week.Wink

    Yes!

    Also, FFC...I kept on refreshing GP to see if you updated. Then I FB'd Deats, b/c she seems to know what's going on with everybody, to ask her if she had heard from you, which she had. Sorry to be a creeper. I'm just so freaking happy for you and that you got to see a little heart beat. I hope next Thursday is the best Vday you've ever had.
