Houston, we have a heartbeat...


After waiting for ONE HOUR on the exam table with my trousers at my ankles, I am very relieved to report that Baby Froggie has a heartbeat and is measuring 6w6d (I'm 7w0d today). So, hubby and I are very happy to have made it to this milestone.

Still worried, of course, but not as much. After all, last time we had a heartbeat that went *poof* by ten weeks, so some worry is in order. But, so far, this lil froggie has produced very normal hcg's and is measuring well within range. We didn't get a heartbeat calculation by the minute, but I am hoping to get the IVF clinic to give me that on Monday (my normally scheduled follow up appt.)

I guess there is good reason for my feeling positively crappy these days. HCG today=38,113.

Delighted and grateful...
