Ultrasound #1

It was a successful day but not everything I hoped and dreamed. We did get to see all my lady parts up on the screen (my ovaries, uterus, full bladder, etc.) and we got to see the pregnancy sac. Unfortunately it was too early to see any sign of a baby. We should see a fetal pole by our next visit, or so the tech says...

Of course my worries run way ahead of the tech talking and I start thinking that maybe it is an empty sac. Maybe we didn't see a baby because there isn't one. Maybe next time there will be no growth and still no sign of a fetal pole.

On the positive side we did get to see the pregnancy and everything looks as normal as to be expected. Troy was even brave and awesome enough to ask the tech for picture. She looked confused and asked if we wanted a pic of just the sac and he said yea. Even though we couldn't see our baby today this was still a huge milestone. We have not been this far yet and even though we can't see him/her hopefully she is hiding in that picture.
