Bad News: At about 5.5 weeks I was hit with a REALLY BAD stomach bug. I put me out for a solid 3-4 days. Today is day 5 and i'm better but still gaining strength back.
Good News:
We had an ultrasound yesterday; I was really scared. I started crying right away and couldn't open my eyes to look at the screen. BUT it all went really well! The Gestational Sac, Baby, and Yolk Sac were all measuring on track (or close to it). They said the baby is too small to date accurately now, but looks just fine from what they can see. Best of all, we saw the heartbeat! I think it was at about 93/94. All of this was seem through only an abdominal ultrasound. I was really surprised as i've read many times it's hard to see a baby let a long detect a heartbeat at a 6 week ultrasound through an abdominal ultrasound. So, i'm pretty happy. Doc reminded us to get alert the media yet, but we are rolling.
As of now here's who knows:
* my parents
* dan's parents
* All my docs (midwife, OB, acupuncturist, hematologist)
* Ashley
* Melissa
* Probably my SIL
* A whole bunch of people on my facebook support groups
