Well, I don't have much to report, unfortunately. The lady giving me the ultrasound, didn't want to do it v____ally, which seems crazy to me since it's SO early. The picture was SO hard to see, and she didn't really look around at all. She measured my uterus, and it was a nice big black clear area on the screen, and everything else was SO blurry. When she was measuring the different areas of my uterus, she moved it around, quite a bit, obviously. While doing that, I noticed a couple round circles...one pretty dead center, and another off to the side, but they weren't in the black area of my uterus, so I didn't think it/they were a sack. But when it came time to measure baby, she went to the first one she saw, right smack in the center, zoomed in on it a ton, and said that was "baby". I was super confused, because it wasn't in the area I thought it should be in. But, I'm not the u/s tech, so I don't really know jack. But, once she started measuring that, I got excited that maybe there were more, because that area was so cloudy, and the only way she got a good picture of it, was zooming in on it loads. But, unfortunately that's the only area that she looked at, and baby was measuring small...like I thought it would be. Only around 5.5 weeks (was her guess), and she couldn't get a heartbeat at first, and then right when she was about to quit, and started to tell me to come back next week to try and hear the heartbeat again...she got a flicker. She recorded it for a while, and said that everything looked completely normal for a baby this small, and that the heart probably just barely started beating today, because it was so faint. I hope that's why...it was just too early. Pregnancy right after a miscarriage is NO fun. I am doubting everything. I got my blood tested yesterday. 72 hours after the last one, and it had just barely doubled, which scared me a little, because it has been rising so rapidly previous to that one. It went from 7,155 to 14,394. But for a baby only 5.5 weeks, that's super healthy, and the tech said I shoudn't be worried. HA! That's almost impossible for me to do right now. So, at least I know there's at least one "healthy" baby in there right now, with a heart beginning to beat. It is so early, to do abdominally, that I feel it wasn't very conclusive. So, I think the multiple dreams will still continue, because I wasn't satisfied with the appointment. ARG. I'd like another one in a couple weeks, but I doubt that will happen. I'll probably have to wait until my 18/20 week for another u/s. Anyways, there's my report. Not much but at least it appeared healthy.
