Baby J!


Hello all!  Has been quite some time since my last post!  I had my first ultrasound on Thursday 10/4/12. 
6 weeks 1 day (plus or minus 4 days) - Showing how BIG baby J is...
Showing the heart rate @ 53 beats per minute




I was pretty nervous before this appointment, which was at 2:20 pm, the latest appointment I've had thus far...!  The clinic must have been very very very busy that day as I didn't get called back to the room until a little after 3.  So... go figure I was beyond nervous and excited after waiting that long!  Amazing to see on the screen the little miracle and heart beating!  The heart beat was a little slow, and the doc was a little concerned.  My next appointment is Monday 10/15 at 11:40 - a much better time and I can take an extended lunch with Corey!  I also switched away from the 1.5" needles for my nightly progesterone shot to a different style of progesterone - Crinone.  No more shots!!  I'm not going to describe much about this type of medicine, but if you get curious - look it up yourself :-P.

Corey and I took a little trip to Canada this past week.  This vacation away from work and home was much needed for the both of us!  We averaged at least two, if not over two naps per day.  Pretty much a relaxing and stress free week.  The fishing and weather were not the best, but we still were able to enjoy our time away!

Excited for tomorrow...tomorrow's appointment... not really my return to work !
