weekend away

We took a much needed break this weekend to go have family time up in Michigan. It was so hot up there I was hesistant but got in the lake anyways. Ive read you can catch some form of bacteria but I needed to cool down. The water was nice but too warm. I got sun burned too. It still hurts!

Today marks 16 weeks! I cant believe how fast its flying by now.
I also have about 2.5 more weeks of school then Im done!

NT scan

We had our NT scan on Monday and everything is looking great! The baby was moving like crazy and smiling at us. My heart melted.

The heart rate went from 178 to 160. The tech said it is still really high so Im not worried. Im thinking its still a girl. DH thinks its a boy. We will see soon.....

We scheduled the BIG scan for August 10- DHs birthday!

Welcome to the 2nd tri! :)

what a great b-day present!!!

Wednesday was my 27th birthday. I got the best gift of all. We got to see our baby on an ultrasound screen. IT was amazing. The baby is measuring right on track to my calculations so the due date is Dec 27. The heart rate is 178 give or take. We are both thinking we are having a girl. I will have to wait and see though.

Im so excited.

If we wait til the 20 week mark, we will find out the sex of the baby on DHs birthday.

Happy Birthday to us!

7 week mark

Things are progressing nicely. My betas were fantastic! I went from 32 to 93 to 4560! Im almost to the 3 month mark and Im so excited. My first ultrasound is on my birthday (the 18th). I cant wait!

My next OB appointment is June 2. Ill be 10 weeks then.

School is finishing up for this semester then I will have just 8 weeks til Im completely finished! Woo!

3 week mark

This week has been crazy! I got my BFP on Thursday at 10dpo! I also got my bloodwork done and had to go back on Saturday to get it done again to see if the numbers are increasing. Please pray for healthy number and babi(es). Now its slowly setting it that this is happening again.

We told B's parents on Friday and they were so happy. We will tell my parents on Wednesday when I see them. The siblings will find out after I get the results from the dr on Monday. Then the rest of the family will find out around 20 weeks. We want to go past the time we lost baby #1 before we let the family know this time.

We also decided to do a week by week video recording with our new video camera. It will be nice when we get the end result.

It finally happened!!!

After 10 months and 6 days I finally got a BFP!

We are so excited and nervous. I went to get my bloodwork today and I have to go back on Saturday to get it done again so they can see it doubling. According to pregnology.com, Im due Dec 27. DH is hoping for a Dec 31st baby. That would be neat.

Now Im all in planning and getting things all set and Im only 3 weeks! Ha! We are planning on telling the parents next week and then the rest of the family at the 2nd tri mark.

cycle vent

Im not sure what the hell is going on with my cycle this month. I O'd (according to FF) on CD13. Im on CD31 and still no AF or + test. Last year this month I got my first BFP. Im kinda hoping I would get it again but no such luck this year as of right now.
B gets insurance back for us starting June 1. We are going to try naturally until then but if not, we are going to use our IVF we have through the insurance. There is a procedure they use to select good egg/sperm with no defects and implant those. Its just super expensive. I dont care as long as it works! We are looking for a nicer RE then who we had seen with my m/c. He just wasnt personable for us.

B and I are hoping for a BFP but we will settle for AF too. We just want to move on already!
