My husband and I just got married Nov. 10 2007. I just found out I'm pregnant and due at the end of August! How amazing is that?! This is something that I've always wanted. Having a hard time waiting, never been very patient! Hoping to have a girl since my husband already has 2 boys, but will be glad to have whatever as long as it is healthy.

Well, those dreams have sadly and very unexpectedly come to an end. I had my first dr's visit on Jan. 31 and it was to date the worst day of my life. After my ultra-sound it was discovered that there was no baby, just an empty sac. I sat there in shock because I had never heard of such a thing. How could there be no baby? I was pregnant! I had all the symptoms, positive test..what gives? These things just happen or so I'm told. Your body thinks you are still pregnant but the baby never developed. So if that wasn't heartbreaking enough for one day I was asked if I wanted to miscarry on my own at home or would I like a D&C. Well to be honest I have never been in the hospital or had any type of surgery done before so now I was terrified. I wanted to get it over and done with you know, I didn't want this to go on for days so I had it done that day. When I woke up it was like I was a different person. I went to the dr. that day smiling from ear to ear only to leave 7hrs later in a wheelchair feeling totally empty. Now I am left with the constant baby thoughts and when and will I ever have one.

Went back to the Dr. yesterday. Everything came back fine and my uterus has went back to its normal size. She told me that I could start trying as soon as my period came back! I was very surprised. I just knew she would tell me to wait for 3 months. Feeling very hopeful right now! Wish me luck!

Well here it is June already! Just wanted to say that I am finally pregnant again! The doctor wanted me to come in early cause of my recent history. Didn't find out too much today, but I do feel a little better. She wants me to come back in 3 weeks so we can do an ultrasound to make sure everything is going as planned this time around. I will feel a whole lot better when I see my little one or at least hear it's heartbeat. Keep wishing me luck!!!

Well, I got my wish! I got to see my little peanut and hear it's heartbeat! I was so scared to look at the screen, afraid I would just see an empty sac again. But no, there it was as soon as I looked. I was so happy! I started crying when she started measuring it. I had to hold my breath so that we could hear the heartbeat. She said everything looked good and she wanted me to come back when I was 11wks to do another ultrasound and check for down syndrome. It's like a weight has been lifted off me. I feel so much better. It was the most amazing thing I've done so far. Got my first baby pic out of it! Can't wait to see my little peanut again!!!
