Hey everyone 
I've already had a couple of ultrasounds - the first was because I have had abnormal periods and they wanted to check?? Was about 4 weeks, 4 days along and we only saw uterus thickening. For some reason, the u/s tech did abdominal? I would have asked for vaginal if I knew!! The doctor was pessimistic (as I've written about before). I went to the ER just a little over a week later due to cramping and they gave me an inner ultrasound and we found a gestational sac and yolk sac! Yay! They measured me a few days earlier than what my LMP suggested (I thought I was 5 weeks and about 5 days but the radiologist suggested I'm closer to 5 weeks). Makes sense because of my wacko periods.
Tomorrow is the last ultrasound in a while and I should be about 8 weeks along but now I'm not sure. I'm remarkably nervous and I have a bad feeling. Maybe it's because I didn't see a baby the last u/s. I don't know what I'm going to do if I can't at least see a baby. I know I should be able to see the heartbeat.
Please keep me and my little raspberry in your thoughts. We are already so excited - this little bean is a long time coming and I'm so ready to be a mom. I'm just not prepared for bad news.
That and I have been knocked out by the flu the last two days
