Very Cool!

I had my first ultrasound today. The U/S tech asked me if I saw it and I made the sound of excitement (I guess because she obviously saw it even though I hadn't yet – and still couldn't) So a little disappointed and confused I said... "No."

Then she said "see the flicker" and I got really excited again that I about jumped off the table and said "I see it! I see it!" It was absolutely the coolest thing ever! Even though it still wasn't really much to look at – ha ha.

Seeing the heartbeat was amazing and over joying. It reminded me of a frog filling up its stomach with air and letting it out. I have a picture of what I'm calling "sweet pea" or my "little parasite"

After I finally was shown what I was looking at there appeared to be two, but one was much smaller. Doctor had already asked if identical twins run in our family (I thought she was just playing with me) and when I said no – I didn't hear much else from her about it – it's almost as if she had all the sudden been confined to what she could say – very strange. Later, when I got my HCG levels and Progesterone level results in – they were seriously higher than what I had been told was normal.

So worried – again – that something was wrong with my little sweet pea, I got on the internet and "googled" to see what would cause my HCG levels to be 3 times the normal. I couldn't believe what I read… "multiples." I would say I was terrified and/or excited about thinking back to what that nurse said, what I "thought" I saw and what I was reading, but the second tiny white mass I saw didn't have a flicker. I tried to call and get them to tell me and I didn't get a lot of explanation, only we'll see you in a week. Great, what a seriously looooonggg week this is going to be.
