Heartbeat

Ok...so there was a heartbeat!!!!!!!!

 170bpm. 

This is freaking nuts. Absolutely mind blowing. 

The doctor says she thinks I would be 10-12 weeks pregnant based on my hcg, uterus size and the baby's (what- did I just write baby!?!?) heart rate. 

Today, I was at a clinic. Long story short I'm away from home for a while and it's harder to get the medical care I'm used to. There was not ultrasound machine, so the doctor used a doppler.  

I got referred for an ultrasound tomorrow.

  6. How wonderful! This is my dream, by the way. After three losses I'd love to realize I was pregnant and skipped the first trimester (never going to happen, though, since I obsessively start testing at 9 dpo). This month, I just KNEW I was pregnant and tested at 8 dpo. I was right (miracle!) but six days later I was finally four weeks pregnant and the idea of 36 more weeks (if I'm lucky) of worry is overwhelming!

    Praying for a great ultrasound for you! -Polly
