7 Week, 3 Day ultrasound happened this afternoon. Baby's heartbeat was strong and very measurable this time! Thank fucking god! It was 145 bmp. The fetal pole also grew by 2/3 from one week ago! It jumped from a 3 something to a 9 something! All good news. I am measuring 3 days behind technically but my RE says that anything within a week is totally normal so everything is exactly where we want it. Again, thank fucking god. I have one more appointment in two weeks at the clinic and then we graduate! Yikes! This means that we actually need to find someone to deliver this baby (fingers crossed). I have been casually searching midwives and there is one in particular I need to contact so more on that later! Official due date is July 20th!

Sorry for the terrible glare...I had to take a pic of the US with my phone. |

So happy for you! If it helps at all, my little Ladybug was measuring a little behind at our first ultrasound (and maybe even our second, can't remember) and by 20 weeks she was all caught up and where she needs to be.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I know it's normal...every baby is individual.
DeleteCan I be Auntie Teresa?
ReplyDeleteOMG! Of course! :)
DeleteThank fucking God! Haha. Have been waiting for an update! I know this feeling all too well :)
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Sorry, didn't mean to keep anyone waiting!
DeleteAwesome pictures! So happy for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you lady! The pictures kinda suck....I gotta figure out how to scan them into my computer.
DeleteWOOHOOO!! Such amazing news!! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks girl! Hope you are feeling better?
DeleteCONGRATULATIONS!!! Ohhh what great news. So excited for you guys!
ReplyDelete:) Thank you!
DeleteSo I have been following your blog for a while, but this is the first time I've commented. It's given me comfort to feel that I am not going through this infertility journey alone. Amazingly, I too got a BFP in November! We are only a few days apart! I'm due on July 18th! How fun is that! I hope we both have an easy 7.5 months. I feel like after everything we have been through, we at least deserve that, right?
ReplyDeleteHell yeah! I am humbled (and pleased) that reading my blog has made you feel less alone. That is how I fell into blogging. I felt so, so alone and sad. It is truly amazing what a difference it made in the last 6 months to be a part of this community! My attitude still had some low points (that's just unavoidable) but I never felt alone! Do you write? I would love to follow your pregnancy and we can compare notes! Congrats!
DeleteYes, definitely starting to look like a baby! I'm SO glad to hear everything went well with your ultrasound. I measured a day or two behind a couple of times during my early ultrasounds, but measured to the exact day at my NT scan. My RE said the same about within one week. So happy for you :)
ReplyDeleteI am not worried. Repeat, I am not worried. My husband was like, look there's the big head... and then I was like, shut the eff up and don't ever talk about big heads! LOL!
DeleteSo amazing. Happy for you!
ReplyDeleteThank you friend. I hope you are hanging in there...I know you are having a rough time. Believe me when I say I've been there! I am so looking forward to what happens in your world in this new year! XOXO
DeleteBeautiful! So happy for you!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteThis is so awesome! I love it! You will continue to make great progress, I know it!
ReplyDeleteDitto lady! I am so excited for you! Crossing fingers for both of us and both our babies!
DeleteThat is an excellent heart rate! So happy for you, friend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect due date, my son's birthday :-) Wonderful!
