Today they cancelled my dating scan. The hormones got the best of me and I bawled my eyes out before deciding to call another place to see if they could fit me in. They did fit me in, but I kind of wish I had waited. They couldn't see anything so they had to do an internal, as I expected, but even then they couldn't see much. I have a tilted uterus and it wasn't a great picture. From what he could measure, it put my EDD forward a week, making me 5w 5d instead of 6w 4d. I calculated back and it's almost impossible that I'm that far along because it would mean that I got a positive test at 2 weeks 5 days and meant we conceived 6 days after we BD'd. Hoping the 12 week scan gives us a better date, but really EDD doesn't mean anything. The likelihood of having bub on that day is low and I'm determined to take it all as it comes this time round and not be so wound up all the time.
After we got back from our scan I posted a picture of my daughter in her shirt that said 'I'm Going to be a Big Sister' on my FB page. It felt so good to finally get it out and I know my family were finally happy they didn't have to hold it all in. LOL. All the well wishes and love has been phenomenal. A lot of our friends know that we have been wanting this baby a while now.
Although I am happy that I got to see the little one and see his heartbeat (113bpm) I'm very anxious to get to the second trimester. Hopefully by then this MS will be gone and I will be feeling more alive and look less like the roadkill I have been resembling lately. I'm anxious to find out if I have GDM like i did with my daughter and hoping that isn't the case, and I'm also hoping that the OB will allow me a VBAC. All things I look forward to finding out, as well as the gender of our second and last addition to our family.
Until then, my couch and my bowl are constant company....
