U/S #1 - 5w3d

Yeah, I know. I'm a little late in posting this but oh well! I had my first ultrasound last Friday at 5w3d. I knew it would be too early to see the heartbeat but was still nervous to see if our little love fern was were it was supposed to be. 

I've known too many women that have lost their babies due to ectopic pregnancies and just wanted to be reasurred that I would not end up as one of those statistics. While our little one was in my uterus, my RE did seem a little concerned of its placement. She said they usually like to see them implant a little further away from the cervix but I wasn't in immediate danger where it was. She said they'll keep an eye on it and track its movement. The one thing that is definitely in my favor is that I am still super early and I know things can change once it begins to grow. 

I go back tomorrow for my second ultrasound and Bryan will be joining me this time. We're hoping to see a nice, strong heartbeat and then maybe I'll be able to breathe a little easier and know that this is really happening. I'm still in the surreal world and can't believe I am actually pregnant.
