One more day...

Our first ultrasound is Wednesday morning! My emotions right now range from extremely excited to pretty much terrified. Wednesday is either going to be one of the best days of our lives or one of the worst. I can't imagine how fast my heart is going to beat waiting for that first reaction from the ultrasound tech. I still have my sore bbs and tired symptoms, but I still don't have any nausea :(. I was really hoping I would be hugging a toilet by now. I'm having a hard time blogging because it is impossible for me to even put into words how I'm feeling right now. Hopefully, I will have a beautiful video of our miracle baby to show all of you on Wednesday! Please pray for us.

I just found out that I am pregnant Saturday. I took my first beta test today and will have my ultrasound when my numbers hit 1000, which I assume will be around week 6 like you are doing. Right now, I am 4 weeks 2 days. I can completely understand the fear. I felt a lot better today about being pregnant, but have had an overwhelming fear the last 2 days that I may lose this baby. I haven't had a miscarriage before, but I know how common it is from those who surround me on the blogs. I don't have any sore boobs and am not sure that my tiredness stems from pregnancy right now, but have been nauseous and vomiting most of the day. I think it was more from waking up with a headache that made me nauseous, but I'll have to see how I feel tomorrow. That part isn't fun, but I treasure every bit of it, knowing what a great gift it is to be pregnant.

I'm so glad to be able to share in the miracle with you. It's been very hard for me to blog about pregnancy after infertility as I know how much others are hurting and I don't want to add to their pain. I look forward to seeing your video Wednesday and rejoice with you everyday!

Love your blog and am sooo excited for you! I've been watching and praying through the blog world :)

I am 11 weeks pregnant today and have not had one day of nausea. At times I have been so nervous almost wishing I would be sick so I would "feel pregnant", but at every appointment I hear that everything is perfectly fine. Don't worry!!!!!!!! :)

I hope everything goes great for you tomorrow! I never had any nausea so maybe you'll just be one of the girls that doesn't get sick. Thanks for putting the ticker up!

I will be praying for you tomorrow. I have been following your blog for awhile. My husband and I started TTC in oct 07. We had a miscarriage at 5 weeks 3 days in Jan 08 and had been trying since then. Last thursay we got a BFP! I went in Monday for a beta test. The nurse called today and my levels were 90 at about 15-16 dpo. I go back in tomorrow for another blood test and an U/S so I guess we will see. I know how you are feeling, it is so nerve wracking sitting around waiting and trying to decide if you feel "more pregnant" than the day before. Best of Luck tomorrow!!

I'm happy the ultrasound went well for you. I can't wait to have mine in the end of January.

I'm just out of the first trimester and didn't have one bit of nausea...At All. Maybe you're one of the lucky ones too. :)
