Leading up to my first ultrasound this morning I really thought I was going to poop my pants. The idea of the nervousness and anxiety to come was terrifying. I am being very realistic with this pregnancy especially having experienced a loss in the past. I had definitely pondered over the possibilities of what I could have experienced this morning and was torn with being excited for what I've wanted for so long and terrified of my world crashing down.
Last night as I was getting ready for bed I realized that I had been singing the lyrics, "don't stop believing"over and over. What in the world was I singing that for?! Who knows why but Chad and I thought of it as a good sign.
This morning I didn't wake up with any nervousness or anxiety.. only anticipation and excitement. I think my body just knew that I could relax and it would be okay. Extra prayers probably didn't hurt either.

Then shit got real.
So I don't know what I was thinking but I'm not quite 6 weeks yet... maybe. Based on my LMP, suspected O date, and the ultrasound I'm somewhere between 5w5d and 6 weeks. Not that it really matters but still. In the video you hear him say that I'm measuring 5w5d-5w6d but then later he says that in that shot I'm measuring 6 weeks. Who knows. I go back in two weeks for another one. Maybe we can get a better idea then.
omg, this is awesome, congratulations!! that video was so precious, how exciting for you guys! Hey, I've been meaning to tell you, you inspired my BFP in a way! When I read your BFP post on the bump about standing on your head, I thought it was SO hilarious that I told my hubby, & next time we BD'd when I had +opks, I stood on my head too totally just to be funny! lol. Anyway, I ended up getting a BFP too, which is crazy! haha. I thought you should know, you inspired my BFP in some way, lol. I titled my post on the bump "I stood on my head too!!" :D Apparently it works!
