So, just turned 40 last week and the week prior, I found out I was pregnant. Spotted a bit the week I found out and ran to the doctor. At that time, I was just 5 wks 5 days. Well, this morning, (exactly 8 weeks today) I went to the bathroom at 4 am and there was spotting. Not a lot, but having had a miscarriage and a molar pregnancy, any spotting is cause for alarm. Not to mention, my nipples were not as sore as usual and normally, they are KILLING ME! I have a doctors appt on Friday, but I could not wait!!! I prayed the entire way to the hospital

Fast forward to finally being called in for the ultrasound. I was surprised that they decided to do transabdominal. I asked her about that and she said that it what they normally start with. So....the Bean doubled in size and has a heart beat of 160!!!!! The doctor came in and said that everything looks great! God is good!!!!! I was scared to death. While I was not expecting this little Bean, I love her and can’t wait to meet her. praying that I continue to have a healthy pregnancy.

I posted this for all the worry warts out there like like me. Don’t feel bad for worrying or second guess your instincts, especially if you are high risk. The doctor said I did the right thing by coming in to get checked out and to never hesitate to do it again if I feel it is warranted. Better safe than sorry!!!! May we all have healthy pregnancies 😊
