So, the next day (Feb 15) I went to work, trying to keep a tight lip. I had some more cramping and spotting and got a little paranoid so I called my MD office at lunch. The doctor was busy but was going to call me back. I couldn't answer when she did call back but then when I listened to the message the nurse said "the Dr. wants you to come in today to be seen". I confused and worried. Is something wrong already?
I tearfully (it's true pregnancy makes tears come out easier) told my boss that I had to leave mid-shift to go to a Dr. appt. She asked if everything was ok but I couldn't give her any details so I just said the Dr. wants to discuss some labwork (which was actually true).
I got to the MD office and they checked my in a put in a room with an Ultrasound machine. I undressed and she came in and was like "your lab work came back and we think you are further along then we thought". Based on my HCG levels, she said we'd probably be able to see a heart beat! What?
Sure enough, the ultrasound found a little bean with a heart beat fluttering away. It was so crazy!
I called Steve immediately and he was so excited. The doctor measured the bean and said we were 6 weeks along.
