My appointment is at 11:30am this morning. Right now it's 8:50am. I'm going to take a long shower, flat iron my hair, put on some make up, get myself all prettied up - because it will take me about that long. I'm so unbelievably nervous I can't think straight. My stomach is full of butterflies. I have read online that fetal heartbeat can occasionally be seen as early as 5 weeks pregnant, but not often. Usually you must wait until at least 6 weeks, even into 7 weeks before you'll see anything - depending on the equipment. So I have to try my hardest to not get my hopes up for seeing a heart beat today.
I should be able to find out roughly how far along I am, though. I have read it could be off by about a week or so. But they should give me a due date today. I am just so nervous about what they'll find, or not find... I keep seeing online women who have an empty sac, or find out they are about to miscarry, or the baby has a very low heart beat the first reading. I have to remind myself that everything is going to be ok. Hope for the best! This pregnancy is different already, I can feel it. I haven't had any bleeding for over a week now, and that's a VERY good sign. Last time I bled the whole time, all the way through the 8 weeks.
This time has to be the one.
