Do you see what I see?

Back to Dr J for more blood work, injections etc. The first beta was in the 30s by the way. It's way more now - I have been peeing on sticks compulsively since Monday!

Then we did a sonogram.

Then I saw it.

A polka dot right in the middle of the screen.

Yes, yes (mummers Dr J) well developed since Monday (See! my kid is a genius already!!!!)


However, I have to have an IV tomorrow or the day after for something to do with antibodies. I didn't really understand and by the time I had had my injections, the sono, the sighting ... I was exhausted so didn't listen properly. I trust Dr J. She has got us this far.

I know we have a very long way to go to be in a safer place but this is a great Christmas present. The best. A polka dot.

I am gonna frame it and give it to DH on Christmas Eve.

  12. Welcome, sweet polka dot! Wow, cool that they gave you an ultrasound at 8dp5dt! I had to wait WEEKS!

    I love that you're going to frame the u/s and give it to your husband. The very first baby picture. On Christmas Eve. Beautiful.
