Week 6 Doctor Appointment

So, I went to the doctor today for my week 6 check-up. I got to see and hear the heart beat! It was so much to take in at once I was mostly in shock. My mom cried and then looked at me like, "what's wrong with you?" ::laughs:: It's weird..and a bit hard to explain...but I still feel like they're going to tell me it's all not true. I look at the pictures and still can't believe this is happening. I also still have fears and concerns that it's not going to stay this way...

I don't have to go back for another 4 weeks, so by then, I'll be 10 weeks, and hopefully mostly out of the miscarriage danger zone. Dr.S said everything looked good. There was no free-floating blood and the cervix looked long and closed. I hope by the 10 week mark it'll have stuck with me that I am actually pregnant, and it's going to stick around.

Now! On to pictures!

Baby at Week 6

I color coded the first picture, for those of you who can't see what's going on in sonograms. Pink is my baby, the yellow-orange is the yolk-sac (which will later become or determine the sex of the child from what I've read), and red is the baby's sac (it's home for the next 8 to 9 months).

And last but not least, the heartbeat!
