First (Official) Ultrasound New Due Date!

Okay, so this story is a little bit crazy. I had a sonogram appointment this afternoon and I was told by the technition to drink 24 ounces of water an hour before my appointment and to hold my urine! This is so they don't mistake my bladder for my uterus because it looks the same while the bladder is empty. So I drink about 17 ounces of water and on my way to the clinic I feel the urge to go! I ignore it thinking I'm just feeling this way because I know I can't go so maybe it's because I want to. WELL! After about 20 minutes of driving I realize that I REALLY have to go and I'm on the verge of tears. I contemplate driving to the side of the road and using the bathroom on the street but DH stops me! (DH=Dear Husband) I finally get home (because my house was 5 minutes away from the clinic and I couldn't wait!) and I decided to just pee a little until I'm comfortable. Well then I notice that I'm bleeding... again!! I'm thinking, It's because of this stupid urine thing!! I get back in the car and drink some more water because I didn't want to deal with drinking a whole 24 ounces again.

When I get to the clinic they try to perform the sonogram on my belly and realize they can't find the baby so they say "Go pee the water out and we will do the ultrasound vaginally." WHAT!!! So I did all of this for nothing!!! I go and use the bathroom again and notice I'm still bleeding! More spotting but bright red :: I then lay and the tech performs the sonogram. She shows my a picture of a little buger and says, "That's your baby!" THAT little itty bitty thing is my child!! I smile... Then She shows me another picture and I say, "Is that the baby?" She says, no that's the yolk, this tiny part here is the baby! I'm floored! She then lets me hear the heart beat... The most beautiful sound I've ever heard in my life... It was going so fast! She said it was 124 beats per minute... I shed a tear of happiness while DH sits and looks amazed. She stepped out and we look at each other smiling.

The tech comes back in and says I am 6 weeks and 6 days. My due date is October 24, 2009. My little Scorpio... I will post the picture of my blueberry (that's it's size this week) later on.
