On a Positive Note

God has blessed me with a great deal of nausea today, which has been encouraging. Experiencing symptoms helps me to feel as if everything with the pregnancy is healthy and on the right track. I also read several websites and blogs that indicate that it is normal for an ultrasound to pick up only the gestational sac before six weeks (which is exactly what we saw yesterday). One OB's site stated that things change daily at this point, and it further explained that although the yolk or baby may not be visible one day, it should get clearer in just two or three days. And just a couple days after that, the baby's heart beat should be noticable. If that's the case, we should be able to see everything during next week's ultrasound. In the meantime, I'm just going to focus on the positive and pray for a healthy baby.

On a funny note, the house is rumbling as I write this. No, not because of thunderstorms or adverse weather conditions, but because Wade rented a hip-hop DVD to learn new dance moves. He's practicing right this minute! Yes, you read it right, folks. Wade will soon be the new hip-hop dance champion of...well, at least this corner of the neighborhood. I'll try to post some video soon!

Hope you're enjoying your week. Thank you for your continued prayers and well-wishes. God bless!

I can just hear Wade saying, "Hey ya'll, watch this!"

So glad you're focused on the positive. The first ultrasound of Madelyn was exactly what you have described. In one week, we saw our little bambino and a strong heartbeat!

Still praying -
