Yesterday was my first ultrasound to see baby Merrick #4. I was a little earlier than previously thought, so my due date has been changed to 1-21-11. But there was my little one, in the right place, with one BEAUTIFUL and strong little heartbeat. It was a blessing to be able to see the heartbeat so early. I had said lots of prayers that yesterday's ultrasound would reveal that beautiful sight and ease my mind a bit. And I had a little talk with "speck" and told him/her to get that little heart going so I wouldn't have to worry for another week or two. Thankfully this one doesn't seem to be as stubborn as his/her siblings. :-)
I'll have another ultrasound on June 23rd. The doc wants to measure everything carefully due to my history, etc. I appreciate them being so thorough. I have a lot on my mind this time around, and I need lots of reassurance and prayers.
Olivia asked yesterday if the doctors knew yet if she'd be getting a brother or a sister. She wasn't very happy when we explained to her that it was way too soon to tell. It's going to be a long pregnancy, but I'm looking forward to every second of it.
