Confessions
Yes, it is true, I am pregnant! I am 10 weeks 2 days today. I wanted to wait until after my next appointment to share but i got Busted! Here's the dirty....

On May 29th we went for bloodwork after a positive home pregnancy test. The numbers were so high (Beta 14,741 and Progesterone 41.3) the Doc said we dont need another bloodtest (to make sure the numbers were increasing) to just come in for an Ultrasound. So on May 31st we did just that. We saw what measured to be a 6 week embryo with a heartbeat of 107 bpm (usually they cant measure the heartbeat at such an early stage). So Yeah!!!! Everything looked good.

Over the next couple of weeks I had a little spotting and severe cramps near my left ovary, so I called in Monday morning to see if when I came in for intake on Wed if we could do another US just to make sure everything was alright. So Wed morning the baby measured at 8 weeks and its hearbeat increased to 160bpm!! Everything was fine The pain I was feeling was a cycst on my ovary which they had seen in the past. It was actually smaller but since things were getting compacted inside, it was causeing pain and possibly the spotting.

We go back on July 13th were we will do the NT Test (for ds). I will be a day short of 13 weeks. We'll also get to see baby again and possibly tell if its a boy or girl.

So, things are going VERY well. I've gained too much weight in my opinion, but its worth it.

I'm sorry Jan I had your head swimming there for a while. And Jay.... thanks for busting me!

I think you know how happy I am for you, and just so you don't worry about it at some point, no, i'm not jealous or envious. Though of course I frequently think about the fact that David and I would have a baby about 6 weeks old now if I hadn't miscarried, I realize now that it was for the best in our lives. We have our hands full with all my other kids and with rachel being pregnant, can you see a household with a 3 month old and a newborn?? So I am very very happy for you and expect to get lots and lots of updates my friend. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It doesnt seem possible that it was that long ago that we ... went through all that at the same time. I know your not the type to be jealous, it never entered my mind. I would have thought the numbers I gave you a few weeks ago would have given you your answer. 6w3d107hb? Does this mean I slipped one past you? *snickers* (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nice try but uh uh lol. Go back and look at your entry that was titled something like so many symptoms so little words or something like that and look at my response. I've known since the beginning you goof.... plus I mentioned it in your "viewing" entries.... but then when you said that about the kitty, like I said, it threw me and I thought that all aloing what I had THOUGHT I knew wasn't the right thing... so you keep tryin' sooner or later you'll get me hehehe (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah I know you were on the trail back then, but when I slipped in the baby kitty I was totally surprised that you blended the two together.. which was exactly what I did hoping to send your head spinning.... LOL sorry, I was toying with you a bit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
