Baby is Okay

The docs have no idea what made me bleed so profusely, however, the baby still has a heartbeat and was waving at us when they did the ultrasound. Big huge sigh of relief over here. My blood pressure was surprisingly low despite being anxious and having a headache + my usual white coat syndrome. Once we got in the room the nurse tried futilely to try to find the heartbeat with the doppler. Let me tell you that sucked. The doc came in with the ultrasound and thankfully announced that they could see the heartbeat. I had my eyes closed because I couldn't see the monitor anyway. We are all so relieved.

Thank you so much for your supportive comments. I was really freaking out inside. I read your comments as they popped up on my iphone and they got me through....thanks.

  10. hey, I knew it! Everything is fine.
    But let me ask, did you need/get the Rhogam shot? I have been told that you have 72 hours to get it after bleeding.
    Congratulations!

  21. Oh my god Jen, I'm so sorry I'm late in commenting, I have been away and felt sick to my stomach when I read your previous post. I am so unbelievably relieved for you that you've been told everything is A-OK, what a horrible scary time that must have been for you. Look after yourself and that beautiful little plum baby xxxxxx
