First Ultrasound
OMG, what a moment! I was so worried and scared that I would receive bad news AGAIN! But, when she showed me that little white flicker of a heartbeat at 118bpm, tears of relief filled my eyes and now I can finally breath easy, I can finally be excited and happy!! And I can finally tell my two boys <3 Stay sticky and healthy little rainbow bean!!

Told Our Kids
Since the ultrasound went well and there was finally a heartbeat, we felt confident enough to tell our boys! They were thrilled!! Their reactions made me cry tears of joy <3

First Prenatal Appointment
Scheduled the ultrasound for sometime later this week. Doc says levels are looking good this time, but I'm still worried about getting bad news again after my ultrasound... I'm still afraid to be happy or excited....

Announced Pregnancy to Family
Since we have had 5 miscarriages, everyone is very cautiously happy. Announcing our pregnancy seems to have lost it's spark of happiness and excitement... But, so far so good with this little rainbow nugget :)

Told My Boss About My Pregnancy
My mom is actually my boss and I told her pretty early, because she knows I have to get a lot of blood work done and such, so she had to know why I kept leaving for lunch when I normally don't LOL!

First Positive Pregnancy Test
Super light and faint, but it was there! I was expecting to start my period soon, but haven't had a normal cycle since a chemical/miscarriage in June, so I was off a couple weeks on when to expect AF. I know I had a positive OPK July 7th, thinking I should've been pregnant around that week. But that must've been when I ovulated :)

Told Husband/Partner
Told husband as soon as I got a positive test, as I wasn't expecting it since my timing was off after a miscarriage in June. I had to have him double check the test because I was in shock LOL. He didn't want to get excited right away, but as the tests darkened he became happier
