The Sweetest Sound

This time around we decided to wait a little longer before having our first ultrasound. We scheduled ultrasound for 8 weeks this time and patiently waited. Our little baby had other plans though. We were 6 weeks along when I started spotting. Panic set in and I thought for sure this was the end. Immediately we called the clinic and they said they would get us in during their lunch break and we could come down as soon as possible. James was at work and I was a mess but luckily my mom was able to rush home from work to drive me downtown. James met us there and they took us back for an ultrasound. There it was, our little circle, with a heartbeat. The sweetest, softest, flutter of a fetal pole. For once everything was ok. I just needed to breathe, get lots of fluids, and take it easy. We were ok though and that made us more than ok.
