8 weeks and counting

I went for another ultrasound today to make sure everything was growing as it should and to recheck my levels. My dear Katelyn from Savannah drove up to be with me since everyone else was working or out of town. I was so excited she was there to experience it along with me. Baby Toborg is growing perfectly! Dr. Perloe was just as happy and excited as I was. Baby is measuring on target at 8 weeks and 4 days with a strong heartbeat of 173 BPM. Baby was jumping around and wiggly today and it was so exciting to see it. I just can't wait till I can feel those movements! Since everything was perfect, they sadly dismissed me to my regular OB-GYN doctor. I tried to talked him into delivering for me, but he said all he does is get women pregnant and send them on their way....lol I will miss the amazing staff. They are the sweetest and most supportive team I have ever come in contact with. BUT I am definitely not going to miss that drive. I should see Dr. Potter in the next 10 days once they receive my records and then it will be smooth sailing till March 1st and we get to meet this precious, precious baby!.

Until next time....

Party of 3 coming soon!

Travis and I are happy to announce that after two miscarriages and three years of praying and trying we are pregnant!! The baby is measuring at 7 weeks and 2 days with an estimated delivery date of March 1st, which is the day daddy should be coming home. Perfect timing, right? My mom went with me to the ultrasound and all I could do was smile when I saw the sac and fetus inside. As he zoomed in I saw the flickering of the heartbeat and all I could do was cry tears of joy. We have waited so long for this moment and all I can do is thank God to finally reach this point. It would have been even better to experience it with Travis. We still have a long eight months to go, but we are so thankful and excited. I have not had any complications as I did during the first transfer and I just knew this was going to be our time! Dr. Perloe said that everything looked perfect and the heartbeat sounded good and strong at 132 BPM. He felt very confident that things would progress successfully from here on out. I have another ultrasound next week and after that I should be released to my regular OB doctor.

I want to thank each and every one of you for being such a huge support system for Travis and I over the past three years during our journey to parenthood. I know that without your constant prayers we would not be celebrating today. I am overwhelmed with all the love we have received and can not express how much it means to us.

Until next time....
