Things are moving SLOWLY. But we are still hopeful and praying all the time! Monday night I had some spotting and some cramping. But it went away. I was still freaked out and called the clinic first thing in the morning for an appointment. Thank God things were okay. They think the spotting was from the crinone which can irritate your cervix. Last week we had our first ultrasound and we weren't expecting to see much as it is super early. But thankfully we saw a gestational sac. I will admit I was hoping to see a yolk sac too so I wouldn't have to stress all week until my second ultrasound. Then yesterday at my "emergency" ultrasound after the spotting they saw a gestational AND a yolk sac! So I was relieved! We go back Friday for another ultrasound.
I must say, this does not get any easier. The stress of betas and ultrasounds and sacs and heartbeats!! I am my own worst enemy! Yes, I could have gone to my OB first where I wouldn't be so closely monitored. But I think that would have stressed me more. I just feel we were given such a gift that it would be so heartbreaking to lose it.
My beta on Tuesday was 12,244.6. My numbers have been great this whole time. So we are hopeful. It's still very early and I have to be patient and give up my worries to the big guy upstairs...
Thank you to everyone for the congrats on the last post :) Years later in this blog community and the love and support is still strong :) Thank you!!!

Praying for you Sarah!!! xoxoxo!
I know it can be scary to get wrapped up into all the numbers and early monitoring, but try to find some peace in that everything seems to be progressing fine. Thinking of you and hoping you continue to get good news at each appointment!
My pregnancies were each just as difficult as the one before it. Especially following a miscarriage. But I pray that everything continues to progress well!!!
It is so hard to just let time pass by in the early weeks and pray. There really isn't anything else that can be done. Sounds like everything is going really well.
I'm excited and nervous for you too. Hoping you get to hear the heartbeat soon. Really hoping you don't have asthma issues this time around.
This is amazing news!! You're doing so well and everything sounds like it is just going perfectly. :) grow baby grow! xoxo
I'm just so, so excited for you! How awesome!!!
