PA- Thank you! Wow, you are due any day now. Wishing you a positive experience.

Gi- you are too funny! Thank you, I really appreciate it. Tell Jason he's very sweet for asking about me. I know I'll feel better after I see a heartbeat in a couple of weeks.

Hi everyone. To anyone reading this thread, I wanted to update once more. I had my second u/s today and it was awesome. I still cannot believe I'm pregnant finally. My baby is measuring right on at 7w4d with a healthy heartbeat. I do have a small subchorionic hemorrhage that RE is watching but didn't seem too concerned. I have had some spotting.

Here is my bean:

YAY Lou! Love seeing that little bean :D You may remember that I had an SCH from 10-16weeks. Mine was pretty large but it eventually went away. It never got in the way of the girls growth. So happy for you!
