5 Week Scan!

Since my beta last week I've been having fewer and fewer symptoms.  I still have tender breasts and fatigue.  But, I have gone from feeling hungry all the time to not really feeling like eating much, especially in the evening.  Other than that, I haven't been feeling very pregnant.  I know it's early but I thought because I felt so much so soon I would continue to feel the same symptoms throughout the first few weeks of this pregnancy.  I was beginning to worry in typical infertile fashion.  Luckily I have been so busy packing up my classroom and getting ready to leave India for two months this last week has gone by pretty fast.  

This morning when I woke up looked at my husband and said, "We get to see the babies today." Bold, I know! After  a long day that's just what we did!  After school we rushed off to the clinic for a scan where we saw 2 sacs. TWO SACS! One is looking really great and the other is slightly smaller but still looking really good.  So now I have to find myself a doctor in MN to get me through my first trimester.  The Baby Maker said I can get another scan done in about 10 days to see of both have heart beats.  I would be so unbelievably blessed if one of these sticks around until the very end but I sure do hope both do.  

Tomorrow we make the long journey back to MN.  I am so looking forward to clean, cool air, playing cards, and lazy summer days.

  1. Funny how perfectly these things work out;) So sad that I won't be seeing you before you head off, however, I'll be thinking of you often. I'll email you a proper "goodbye." xoxoxo

  2. Continuing to be cautiously optimistic, but the optimism is outweighing the caution! Rest, relax and enjoy your summer holidays. Keep the positivity!

  4. Great to hear things are going well. When I had my first few ultrasounds for my boys one was slightly behind. It was exciting but I always worried one would "disappear". I just kept telling myself they were fighters who had beat the odds so far so they would surely both stick around. Can't wait for the next update!

  5. That's great news! I, too, am suffering from not feeling enough sympotms and starting to worry. I guess it's normal for us Infertiles. Glad to hear everything is going well. Continued good wishes and safe travels.
