THE LONG WEEK SIX!

Lets see in the 6th week of my pregnancy I had 3 ultrasounds for spotting and cramping. I felt as if that 6th week was going to go on forever from worry. The good thing about having the issues was that I got to see the baby and see its heart beat 3 times. At my first appointment the baby's heart rate was 110 which they thought was good. Then I had an ultrasound 3 days later with no raise in the babies heart rate which worried the Dr. I learned that the babies heart rate is suppose to go up about 3 beats a day. So three days later on November 15th at 9:45 am I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time and the heart rate was 122. GO BABY! The heart rate had to be at least 119 and this little over achiever went for 122! One of my best friends and fellow Guate Adopt Mommy Maryann DeMartin was here visiting from Denver. She got to go with me to this very exciting appointment. We both cried when we heard the heartbeat and found out everything was looking GREAT! This was her first time to get to see an ultrasound and hear a babies heartbeat and I am just so glad she got to share this experience with me, because she is my soul sister! I also saw Dr Logan again for the second time and I still really like her. She is very calming for me and I never feel rushed. Maryann felt the same way and it was great to hear her opinion on the Dr. and baby names...ha! So happy to make it through week SIX!
