MAJOR Milestone Today!!

Hey ladies, thank you all for your continued prayers and support. We had a fabulous check-up today! The heartbeat has picked up to a healthy 154 and the baby is measuring right on target. PHEW!!

Today (8w4d) was the point of devastation in pgncy #2 so this has now become my longest pregnancy out of the four. Am I naive to say that I have high hopes for this one? Could the Lovenox really be our ticket to babydom??

The only downside was that I didn't "graduate" today. My RE asked when my first OB appt was and I said Monday 6/23. So he wants to see me on Friday 6/20 one final time. Maybe he'll be looking for movement or maybe he just wants to see me at the latest possible point before I move on without his care? I really don't mind as I could go for a u/s every day just to see my little nugget's flickering heartbeat :)

My nausea has kicked back in today and I'm "feeling" pregnant again. So, needless to say, I'm happy!

Whew! I echo Katie's sentiments. I was in my blogger stalker alter-ego today waiting for your update. I am starting the next Novena tonight. Little nugget - you rock!

Maria,
Re: your comments to Katie. I am sure they will conceive the same way she thinks she was - you are right - immaculate conception.

Patty, I swear my Dad takes an itsy-bitsy amount of pleasure knowing that my baby was made in a dish and not by his sweet little daughter doing the "nasty". LMAO!!!

Oh, that's so wonderful! Nugget is such a good baby! I bet she'll sleep right through the night when she gets here. She seems so advanced :)
