Today marks my seventh week of pregnancy, if indeed that is what I am. My husband likes to remind me that I can only claim five weeks of this as the true post-conception period. It has been three weeks since I saw those two pink lines. One more week until our first ultrasound.
During our last pregnancy, we had our ultrasound at seven weeks and received the news that I had already miscarried, like we suspected. This time around, I am feeling a little more hopeful. My betas were strong and doubling, I am feeling constantly queasy and tired, and I have not even had a single spot of spotting.
I am trying not to think about what any of this means until after the ultrasound. I keep imagining alternative scenarios - will we see a thriving little bouncing bean, or will we see nothing but a still and silent sorrow?
Seven days to go.

Saying prayers for you & crossing my fingers that you see tiny little arm/leg buds waving at you in 7 days :) Hugs to you my friend!
ReplyDeleteHang in there and stay as positive as you can. Queasy and tired are good!
ReplyDeleteI so hope you see a beautiful heartbeat and a little dancing bean. Good luck next week. I'm having my first ultrasound next week too, but I'll be only 7 weeks at that time, you'll probaby be able to see more.
