Love at first sight!!

We had the 1st sonogram this morning and it was very exciting!! Based on my last cycle everyone thought I was 9 weeks along and it turns out I am only 6 weeks and 1 day. I'm actually quite happy about the change in weeks. It just seems to work better this way. My official due date is March 4th! The baby is currently a little less than 1/2 a cm. Wow, and already has a heart beat. This stuff is amazing!!We did not get to hear a heart beat but we could see a flicker. I go back to the Dr on July 31st and we should be able to hear the heart beat then. I also learned today that it was my left ovary that did all the work.

The only concern she had is with the cyst, which is what released the egg. It's normal and necessary to be there(I think it's attached to the wall on my uterus?? Or, maybe attached to my ovary??I could be wrong?) but it's a bit larger than normal. Usually they are 3cm and mine is 5cm. She said it's not a big deal but just wanted me to be aware of it and cautious. Worst case is it gets over sized and detaches and will cause me lots of pain. She doesn't foresee any issues and told me not to worry. Just wanted to let yall know so yall can add one more thing to your prayer list :)!

It's such a sigh of relief knowing that it's official. After a sleepless night last night full of crazy thoughts, I'm very happy. I got the two things I was praying for......baby and heart beat!!!

GOD IS GOOD!!
