It's Week 12...


I have started my 2nd trimester. We went to the OB today and got all checked out. My blood work is good and the baby looks good so far. I will be having my amnio towards the end of July. Once that comes back clean, Joe and I will breath a giant sigh of relief! Then we can start planning in earnest! And oh the planning! Baby room theme, baby furniture, names, baby clothes......

Week 9 and graduated


I have graduated from the IVF doctors. The baby is developing normally and my hormone levels are perfect. That means no more shots and no more patches. Unfortunately, this is the last of the weekly ultrasounds. Kaiser only does sporadic ultrasounds. I believe I will get one at my June 30th appointment, which will be at week 12. The next big hurdle will be the amniocentesis. Ahhhh! Big scary needle!
In this ultrasound we saw the baby sucking it's thumb and kicking its legs!

Week 8


Here is the ultrasound from week 8. As you can see, the little one is getting bigger.
