8 week ultrasound Mood
Thursday, July 16, 2009


So today was my 8 week ultrasound!! Baby looked great and was still measuring 2 days ahead. Heartbeat was 167 which is perfect. I feel so blessed and in shock that this is really happening! I have never past this point so today was a pretty big day for me.

 

I go back in 12 days for my last ultrasound sound at Houston IVF. I will be 10 weeks and then it's off to my regular ob. I will get to stop all my shots and I think my behind is more excited about that!

 

All in all I feel pretty good and have been lucky with the morning sickness. Some days are better then others but for the most part I can still go about my daily activities. I for sure feel my uterus stretching and have some pain from that. Other then that I am sailing right through my 1st trimester and before I know it the baby will be here!!!

    Great news! I am 11 weeks and 2 days on the day I am 12 weeks I can stop the estrogen shots and crinone cream 2 x a day. Will you be stopping everything or just shots at 10 weeks?

    I too remember the day I was able to stop the shots and it was oh so exciting! I am so thrilled for you. It just keeps getting better and better. I am 24 weeks and still feel blessed and shocked that there is a baby in there. It is so surreal after all we've been through. Don't know if that feeling will ever go away. It is wonderful. I love getting your updates as our stories are so similar. Glad you are feeling good and all is well with baby!!
