Hi, and welcome. This blog has changed a bit recently. My husband and I fought through 4 consecutive losses to get our second healthy child (born in December 2012) . . . and while we had not shut the door on the idea of another pregnancy, we certainly were leaning in that direction. On August 8, 2014, we found out we are pregnant for the 7th time. A total surprise. So the neurotic journey continues . . . third child or fifth loss . . . I'm scared and confused and just a teensy bit excited . . .

Well that's a relief

We have a gestational sac, a yolk sac, and what the doctor is 99% certain is the very very first sign of an embryo.

One thing to note - Based on my blood work and the overall look of things, it does not appear to be ectopic, but that can not be ruled out for certain until the sac and embryo grow more. (This is a little perplexing to me as I thought they could distinguish these things super early...but that's what he said.)

They took more blood this morning and based on those levels, they will determine the next course of action . . . Most likely an ultrasound next week to look for a heartbeat.
