Not the best picture in the world but here is our tiny little one!!  S/he seems to be hiding in a corner (do uteruses have corners?) so that the u/s tech was having a bit of a time getting a decent picture and measurement (not comfortable).  Either way I saw that little heart beating and am still thrilled about it.  Sadly, after not spotting at all yesterday it has returned somewhat today.  This morning it was heavier than it's been and naturally I lost my s@#t.  I just can't handle the ups and downs.  Once I convince myself that all will be fine something else makes me doubt myself and I lose faith so quickly.  Why is something that should be so simple like remaining positive so darn hard???  So now after a very short 24 hours I am already counting down the days until next Tues when we get to see our little one again.  Please continue to pray that this spotting just stops altogether so that I can relax a little and have some peace. 

Also a short story.  I'm not sure how many of you believe in signs but I thought this was pretty interesting.  While hubby and I were in the RE's office waiting to be called in there was a woman there with the worlds most adorable little girl.  I've seen her before and the baby is always so well behaved and she is only about 2.  When she walked into the waiting room with her mom, she walked right up to me and handed me her little baby doll!!!  It was the cutest thing ever.  I asked her if she wanted it back and she said, "No. You".  I was so worked up waiting to go in and this tiny little sweetheart made me feel great.

    Yay! What a cute little baby! I know what you mean about remaining optimistic. Ugh. It's too bad we can't know exactly how everything is going to turn out right now! I'll keep you in my prayers. I'm glad that little girl was able to help you! So cute! :)

    Ahhh, counting down the days. I did that so often those first 12 weeks.
    Just a quick question. Did they check to make sure your progesterone is still good?? I know that's what made my friend start spotting around 5 1/2 weeks. Her dr. put her on suppositories and the spotting then went away.

    What an absolutely gorgeous picture of a little miracle. I relate to all babies as miracles now, as I know how hard the journey can be. Trying to stay positive is difficult, but try to cling to faith and grasp HOPE with both hands and know that we are all praying for you every step of the way.
