For this Child we have prayed...

I'm six weeks six days today, tomorrow SEVEN WEEKS!  I have not been able to say that since I was pregnant with my twins!  God is so good!

Monday was our ultrasound, to say that I was nervous, would be an understatement.  After so much loss, its like I'm just waiting for bad news.  But, its a miracle...

As of Monday, I was 6 weeks and 2 days and our little peanut was measuring 6 weeks 1 day and had a beautiful heartbeat of 113! I was in tears. After 2 1/2 years ttc #3, two IVF's, seven transfers, four miscarriages, so many tears, begging and pleading with God, and finally surrendering to His perfect will, even if that didn't include any more children, he blessed us.

Each day is such a blessing, and I really beginning to believe this WILL BE OUR RAINBOW baby! My pregnancy symptoms are getting stronger.  Today I was very nauseated until I ate something and may appetite is really off... or Im starving.  My stomach bloat is out of control... and I only have one baby!  I haven't gained any weight yet, I fluctuate between 136 or 137.  This is shocking to me since I'm on STEROIDS of all things.

We go back at 8 weeks for ultrasound  # 2.  I honestly thought I would be having more, like I did with the twins, but I don't want them.  They are a source of major anxiety.  Although, I continue to do my best to cast all my anxieties over to the Lord.... I know this little one is in his hands!

Two heartbeats...

and they were beautiful!  We were able to see little flickers for each babe.  I am shocked at how much my lil babe's have grown in one week!  And whats even more unbelievable is that I am officially sporting a pooch!  I tried to suck it in the other night while checking myself out in the mirror and the only thing the budged was my upper stomach!  The pooch wouldn't move!  I had no idea how soon this would all happen, but with two I guess it happens twice has fast!  I called C in to show him.  I said, "look how cool this is..."  He laughed and rubbed my baby belly!  We are loving every minute of it, including my new pooch! =)

I have had so much to write about each day this week, but for some reason, I couldn't get myself over to the computer to blog about it!  I'm sorry,  I've been really tired and a little unmotivated.

So, C already is mimicking my pregnancy symptoms!  Its hilarious!  I say, "I feel nauseated." He says, "I FEEL nauseated!"  I say "I have a headache." He says, "I HAVE a headache!"  I say, "I'm exhausted." He says, "I'm EXHAUSTED!"  To top it off, this morning he woke up to pee at 430am then had to pee again at 6am and then says, "I feel like I have to pee all the time now, I'm so pregnant!"  I was laughing hysterically!!!  I have been teasing him about it all week because he's taking credit away from how I'm feeling! But its okay, he is just excited and I LOVE that he is just as excited as I am =)

I just tried uploading the u/s, but its not letting me for some reason.  I'll try later.

Here's the 6 week ultrasound... babies are inbetween the o's.  Both sacs are actually the same size, but to get a good shot of the baby on the right, it cut off some of the sac.

Its crazy how much they have grown in one week!
