Week 6


I hit my six week mark. We saw one little heartbeat so we are pretty sure only one egg took. The picture shows the embryonic sac, the yolk sac and the little baby.
The large dark circle is the main sac. The little dark circle outlined in white is the yolk and the baby is to the right as the white spot.

Week 5 and counting...


We went in for our first ultrasound.

Will it be one baby or two? Will there be anything at all?

As you can see, we have one embryonic sac! Yes! I wouldn't have complained if it was two, but one is more manageable. So we are on our way. The adventure begins!

I'm pregnant! Again!!

So I'm pregnant again. But it's going to go well and easy this time. No heart aches, no tough decisions. Just smooth sailing with a baby in nine months...or maybe two babies! I'll find out on Saturday. My HCG level is higher than the last time we did IVF, so its possible both eggs took this time. Anyways, looks like our wave of good karma is coming through.


Speaking of babies, we had a surprise birth on Monday. Our Owl Monkey pair had a baby. We didn't even know she was pregnant. They are very elusive and nocturnal monkeys, so it's not like they are out and about all day.
