7 week AW & Appt Update!

Today's appt went great!!

Blood work was fantastic: betas are great and progesterone is holding in the low/mid-twenties. I'm staying on the supps until 11 weeks.

The u/s showed a growing sac and little baby blob! Got to see a little more hb flickering, and the dr printed out a screenshot for me to have! :)

Also, OMG DH this morning. Totally choked me up! So, he's been sick the last few days, running a fever on an off (which thankfully seems to finally have left for good). Anyway, he was saying how he needs to get up and get to the grocery store today so he can make my pulled pork (the shoulder has been in the fridge a couple of days and needs to get cooked). I was telling him not to worry about it and I'd just freeze the pork for another time, and he doesn't need to worry about feeding me, because I can take care of myself while he gets better.

His response: "I'm not worried about feeding you. [places his hand on my lower abdomen] I'm worried about feeding her." (OMG I could have died!!)

I went, "her?"

He replied, "yeah, this one's a girl. the last one was a boy" 

:-S It was simultaneously SO sweet and SO heartbreaking. He wants a boy so badly.

  • I swear, I feel like we're on the same schedule here....I had my 2nd appointment yesterday too...hehehe

    But this is truly awesome. I'm so happy for you that everything is going well :)

    Do you guys plan on finding out what you are having in advance? Or waiting until the baby arrives for the big surprise?

  • Glad all is well. And your H sounds very sweet.

    Absolutely finding out ahead of time! That's not the kind of thing I want to be surprised about. Haha!

    lol....we are planning on waiting, although maybe at some point we might change our minds...I just feel like there's so few surprises in life and this is one of them. But who knows....if I were to accidentally see something during one of the future ultrasounds, I don't think I would be upset ;)

     

  • How have you been feeling otherwise, btw? Morning sickness? Tired? Cravings?

    I've been feeling nausea off and on - seems to be worse later in the day and evening, but today I've been feeling it all day long. And tired....so so tired. I can't wait to go home, eat pizza, and sleep. lol

  • So so so so glad your appointment went well!!  I totally teared up reading what your H said!  :)

    Not too tired, but a little more than usual. And only a few instances of mild queasiness in the past week. Other than that, mostly just sore boobs.

    And still on activity restriction. The cysts are getting smaller, but they're still there. :P

  • Great appt!

    Majority of men want boys and my DH was no exception but ha, joke was on him because since his little girl has been born...he's putty in her hands. Maybe that's why they prefer boys, they know their little girls will tear them down.

    I think that's the secret because DH is exactly that way - wanted his boy, but does everything for his little girl.
