Still Stunned June 12, 2006

Just to let you know where my mind was going into today’s ultrasound, last night I verified that the hospital that my RE is affiliated with was listed as a provider with our insurance company just in case I needed to schedule a D&C today. Yeah, I was not filled with confidence that we would be getting good news.

Thankfully I will not be needing that info yet. Much to my surprise, my ultrasound went well this afternoon. There was appropriate growth, and the heartbeat was still going strong at 156 bpm. Unreal.

I go back again next Monday for another check. I seriously doubt it will have sunk in by then.

Glad to hear things went well today!

Ok, word of advice, get yourself a Doppler for home http://www.bellybeats.com, it is great for keeping DBT at bay. I was addicted to mine.

Amanda! This is awesome! Big congratulations…I’m praying like crazy that all goes well.

28. dawn - June 12, 2006

holy cow! This is amazing. I know how you are about proceding with caution, and how you wouldn’t want me to jinx anything, but let me just say congratulations! By my calculations, if you are anything like me, the morning sickness should kick in soon (in about a week or two). Then maybe, just maybe, it will be more real to you.

This is the best news I have heard in a long, long time, and I can think of no one more deserving than you.
