I’ve been a little quiet

Melissa

So I feel like I’ve been holding my breath and praying to God and all the fertility Saints for the past 3 weeks. At my 7 week appointment we were told that my gestational sac was lagging pretty far behind but to remain hopeful it could catch up. Then at my 8 week appointment sac was still lagging really far behind didn’t grow at all. Week 9, we finally got some good news that it did grow a weeks worth in a week but I was still so nervous something bad could happen. Google was probably the worst idea since almost everything I read about a small sac resulted in miscarriage. From stats I basically had an 80% chance of a miscarriage but I remained hopeful. Praying everyday and drinking a ton of water (in hopes they would help). Today I had my 10 week and final appointment with my fertility doctor and boy have things changed. My sac is almost completely caught up and baby actually looks like a baby. I just wanted to post to let everyone know not to give up hope, miracles do and can happen! I am still so nervous (I probably will be for the entire time lol) but i have some sort of relief. Here is a progression of all my transvaginal ultrasounds I had weekly with my fertility doctor from 5-10 weeks. I go Monday to my OB which I am so excited because we can’t hear the heartbeat only see a flicker at my fertility doctor so I am dying to know the BPM! Sorry for the long post! 💕
