Week 4, Day 7: Sweet Dreams

A few days ago, I had a really good dream. You’ll probably read it and say “That’s all?”, but I’ve never had a good baby dream, only ever had sad ones. Having a happy dream for once? It was amazing. Some of you may recall the dream I had shortly after my first ultrasound for …

The Camping Trip

We went camping this weekend, so I decided to bring the meds along so I could take them on the way home, and get it all done before work on Tuesday. Well, my body decided it would help me get it done, but it kind of ignored that whole point of wanting to have a …

Bad News..

So, had the third ultrasound last Wednesday, and they were unable to detect a fetal heartbeat. Met with my doctor to go over the results on Tuesday morning, and it turns out the baby actually shrunk between the first and second ultrasounds, and they weren’t sure if the heartbeat they heard was from me or …

Week 8, Day 3: The Call-Back

Well, yet again, ultrasound showed a variable heart rate. They didn’t contact me right away because they misspelled my last name… Anyways, baby’s still in there, heart’s still beating, so there’s that at least. They want me to go in again to see if it evens out. Hopefully it does, so I can stop getting …

Week 8: The Ren Fest

Went to the Renaissance Festival today with my husband and step-daughter, and had a great time. However, one downfall was the heat; I get heat exhaustion fairly regularly when out in hot weather with the sun beating down on me, but it came on so quickly today that I had no chance to prepare myself. …

Week 7, Day 3: The Second Ultrasound

I had my second ultrasound last night, but no answers yet. They didn’t tell me anything about the baby, no reassurances at all, so I don’t even know if the baby is still in there, or if the heart rate is strong and healthy, or what else. It’s actually pretty frustrating, because it’s something the …

Week 6, Day 7: The Phone Call

Just got a call from my clinic regarding the ultrasound, and of course, getting a call instead of a letter usually means something’s wrong… They started out with good news, it’s a uterine pregnancy (I figured they would have mentioned during the ultrasound if it was ectopic), and the new estimated due date is March …

Week 6, Day 6: The Ultrasound

So, finally got my ultrasound done two days ago, and they adjusted my dates a bit. Looks like baby is 5 days behind the date estimated by my LMP (last menstrual period), so I’m back into week 6. The technician I was seeing was an hour behind schedule, and since I wasn’t warned, I had …

Week 7: The Blueberry

Hubby and I spent a night at a bed & breakfast in Stillwater this weekend, away from puppies and family, just the two of us. We had a great time, walked down to main street and ate at the Green Room. We got a nice spot on the roof, with a nice view, but then …
