Such a Better Day!

Thank God for great doctors! I have been so stressed out since our appointment yesterday. I mean, you can't hear the words bleed and think "no big deal." I called our fertility specialist today and told him what my new OB said yesterday. And do you know what he did? He told me to come right in! Seriously, today was a crazy day because of snow so he was already short-staffed but said he would stay late and see me so that I wouldn't spend one more minute worrying. He told me I should never ever have to be scared or worried and that I could come see him anytime to ease my fears. When we got there, he looked all over only to find absolutely nothing to be worried about. He said there was not a bleed at all and that our baby looked perfect. And Baby B was crazy active. I mean it, the baby was moving all around and spreading its legs so we asked the doc if the baby was trying to show off anything. He said he had a pretty good idea what the sex is (not 100%) but a good idea sounds great to me! He wrote it on a slip of paper so Brian could read it later and surprise me for Valentine's Day. We have decided this baby is all about the holidays - found out we were pregnant on Christmas Eve, basically know the sex for Valentine's and the baby will be born Labor Day (or there abouts!). Now, because he wasn't 100%, I think we'll keep the news to ourselves for a while, until it is definite. Thanks to all the prayer warriors I have out there that have been sure to pray since we heard about a possible concern yesterday. God has blessed us so greatly with wonderful, praying friends and family! Check out these pics and video. His ultrasound machine is SOOOO much better!

Ok, I turned this one upside down because you can really make out some facial features! Brian thinks the baby has my nose but we think that is definitely Brian's bottom lip sticking out!

  1. I am so glad for that news about baby "B" and I did some praying this afternoon when I read your first post. Great things happen with prayer. Those pictures were a lot better isn't it amazing what we can see in them. the next time you have a 3D one I am sure you will be able to tell what the little one will look like. AMAZING!! I am so happy for both of you. Mary

  2. oh Chrissy I am so glad that your nerves have been settled. sadly you are going to find that you are going to hear every story about scary weird obscure pregnancies and defects. i think g and i stopped watching tv for the last 3 months of BOTH of our pregnancies cause we were convinced that all would happen 2 us. just know that God is in control and that He has already blessed u and satan will try to take every bit of joy out of this time. so as Christ says Fear not!!! and watch no tv (that was thrown in my me)

  3. so happy to hear your fears relieved. I agree with Bryan, it is your nose (Gammon trait I'm afraid). Guess I'm not smart enough to figure out how to hear the sound of the heartbeat.
