A little scare occured last night.  I was getting ready for bed and I had some bleeding.  Not just a little actually quite a bit.  It was a very real reminder of what happened in January.  Of course…I was hysterical. Micah was worried but he stayed calm and tried to keep me calm. A million thoughts raced thru my mind and all of them led to…I can’t believe this is happening again!  I prayed…Micah prayed and we prayed together.  We called the emergency number thru my doctor’s office and the doctor went thru the typical questions and said to call the office first thing in the morning and have them fit you in.  I didn’t actually get to see my doctor…I saw another doctor within the same office.  So…we drove to Oxford, OH.  This is where I will actually deliver the baby.  They did the typical procedures…I weighed in (lost a few pounds…but what do you expect when everything makes me nauseated or puke), urine sample, and blood pressure.  The doctor came in and discussed the situation with us.  He tried to hear the baby’s heartbeat thru this little microphone thing that you put on the stomach…but being only 9 weeks and 5 days it was still too little to hear.  I was examined and poked and prodded.  Then they sent me over for an ultrasound.  I was really nervous…because this was the moment of truth.  Would there be a heartbeat? And…..there was!!!!!  It was going 178 beats per minute.  Going strong our little baby measured exactly the size it should and it was beautiful.  We even watched it wiggle around a little.  One of it’s feet was visible plain as day.  It was so tiny, but a perfect little foot.  Eventually, I’m sure that little foot will be kicking me in the ribs before it’s all over with but right now I am so thankful.

Thank you for al of your prayers.  Thank you God for hearing these prayers and granting us such grace and mercy.  You are an awesome God and I am so grateful.

Ultrasound pics coming soon!!!!
