48 hrs ....

So 48 hours felt like the longest two days of my life ... without my amazing husband and supportive friends I dont know what I would have done it. The phone finally rang that Wednesday morning .... HCG levels were very high 1450 to be exact. I didnt know whether to be releaved or still to worry.. a couple of days went by and Gary and I went in for a second ultrasound, thinking we werent going to be able to see anything the ultrasound began .... I think I was kinda dazed and confused ... I kept thinking we were about to hear horrible news. As I layed there pondering my thoughts ... Gary had this very estranged look on his face ... then it came .. the ultrasound had moved closer so that he could see the screen more clearly. He kept repeating, can you please go back to the previous screen, I kept thinking what does he see ..there it was TWO tiny little sacs with TWO heart beats. It was amazing, the best feeling I think I have ever felt.



5 weeks and 5 days !!!

Catching up ....

So here it goes, I have been telling myself I would start updating my blog for months now ...

So on Monday, December 13th my life changed forever. Gary and I had spent the weekend in Charlotte with my Dad, we enjoyed a nice weekend at the Falcons game. Monday we drove home of course making Gary stop at every outlet mall between Greenville and Charlotte. We got home around 1:30 that day. I had a regular GYN appointment at 4 just a check up.
So trying to make light of the fact that we had made the decision two months prior to go off of BC. I thought this just might be the day, I took an at home pregnancy test. I really didn't expect a positive test result. As I screamed from the bathroom to Gary ... WHAT DOES TWO PINK LINES ON A PREGNANCY TEST MEAN ?? Frantically he said it a REALLY excited voice, I'm not 100 percent sure, usually the nurses in the ER tell me the pregnancy test results! So we took another test, thinking we would get a different answer ... same TWO pink lines!!!
AHHH so excited ... I headed to my gyn appointment so excited to tell my OB we were pregnant.



Only to get devastating news at the OB, she asked me numerous questions, questioning if I was really pregnant or not. They did blood work and she said she would call me in 24 to 48 hours with the results. She sent me home with tear filled eyes thinking we had an ectopic pregnancy. How could this be ... how could we have gotten so excited just to be torn apart ... I don't think I slept for the next 48hrs ....
