Heartbeat!!!!

I think it's safe to say my appt today went well!

The office was busy/running slow, so I did a LOT of sitting around and waiting, and it took forEVER to be seen, but I'll forgive all that.

Got my blood drawn again; I expect b/w results sometime this afternoon to see how my betas are rising and progesterone level is doing.

The u/s: was stellar!! I got to see the heartbeat!!! OMG I almost died. I could cry right now I'm so happy. I'm SO relieved!

The doctor today was different than the one I saw last week (and she had a male resident with her, joy, who was a little rough with the wand). She estimates me at 6w1d, because she can't typically determine a heartbeat sooner than that. She also said the risk of miscarriage with the heartbeat today has dropped to <5%! 

I'm so happy!! SOOOOO HAPPY!!!! I even took a little video for DH, since he wasn't there. I might have to convince him to go with me next week when I go back for one last appt.

    EDD?

    Funnily enough, right around Labor Day!! HAHA! She said Sept 3. I'm going to go look at my chart and see if I can pinpoint O at about 4 weeks back from yesterday.

    ETA: Whaaaat? That would put O at CD15; I'd had water/EWCM a couple of days before that, so I know I was avoiding ST around then. How in the world?!

    When do you get released to your OB?

    Last week's doctor said if we could confirm a hb today, she'd release me back to the regular OB. The doctor today asked if I wanted to stick with them for a couple of more weeks, so I told her what last week's doc said, and she suggested coming back once more next week. I think I'll be all done with them at that point and back to my regular OB.

  • Glad that everything is going well so far for you Lucky....hearing the heartbeat is exciting :)

    I have my 2nd appointment on Tuesday, so I'm hoping everything goes okay. The preliminary bloodwork from the dr. was good, so just hoping that it's smooth sailing here on out....we're probably due right around the same time too hahaha


  • EDD?

    Funnily enough, right around Labor Day!! HAHA! She said Sept 3. I'm going to go look at my chart and see if I can pinpoint O at about 4 weeks back from yesterday.

    My LO is measuring, and has always measured (even at 5w5d), 6 days early.  You can see in my chart that I didn't O until cd21, but according to my due date and baby's measurements, I O'd on cd14 or cd15.

    BUT...looking at your chart, you could have O'd on cd15 maybe??

    Aww I just noticed that lindsayandjamie Beat me to it. I was totally going to say immaculate conception, but maybe we'll just go with divine intervention. And anyways, those spermies can live for a while in there, so who knows. But again, yes yes yes! Yay heartbeat!

    Yeah...it's really not clear this cycle. I could easily see it being CD15, CD19, or CD22. God only knows!! We'll stick with the doc's EDD of 9/3 for now and just go with it. Ha!
