My Baby is Growing Up!

My "baby" is going to be a BIG BROTHER!!!
This child has been a bit dramatic already however, so I'm scared we are going to have our hands full :)


On Monday, there was some spotting while I was at work, so I left and headed to the doctor. My doctor was not there so I saw the nurse practitioner and she ordered an ultra sound. The ultrasound lady found the heartbeat right away and tears filled my eyes. You don't realize how attached to something you get until you might not have it anymore. It was SUCH a sigh of relief. The baby measured 6 weeks 3 days, which was almost exactly a week off from what I thought, but the doctor said that it was fine... especially since Kayden always measured smaller also. The heartrate was 125 beats per minute which is exactly what it should be for a 6 week baby.
I still had to go back today for my actual first OB appointment, see my doctor, do the lab work, etc. My doctor was awesome and decided to go ahead and do another ultrasound just because she wanted to :) The baby measured 6 weeks 4 days and the heartrate was already beating a little faster. She said there was no sign of active bleeding and everything looked just fine. Praise the Lord! So our sweet second baby's offical due date will be September 14th. 4 days after Kayden's 2nd birthday.... :)
