I am sooo sorry Brenda.....I am just over 12 weeks and you would think that after 3 months your safe but one day after my 1st prenatal visit where we heard the babys heartbeat for the first time on Halloween at 12 noon I had to leave work and go to the emergency room because I started bleeding A LOT it was like a big gush so I was all freaked out well we went to the ER and they drew 5 vials of blood, gave me the tag for the blood bank (just in case I needed blood) then I was taken to get an Ultra sound done I was soooo nervous especially after hearing the babys strong and steady heatbeat the day before, so they did the ultrasound and the woman was really really nice my DBF was ssooooo worried they told him to wait in the waiting room down the hall and he did for about 3 minutes then started roaming down the hall calling my name to fine me and then the lady told him you cant be here you need to wait in the waiting room he said ok but did not leave instead he stood right outside the door, then she was preping me for a vaginal ultrasound and went to close the door and she turned around and the DBF scared the crap out of her cause he was right outside the door she kinda screamed a little and said OMG you startled me and she told him I have to close the door to do a Vaginal Ultrasound, he said ok and when she closed the door the poor dear put his ear up against the door to see if he could hear anything she came back in and said in the 17 years I have been doing this poor guy I have never seen anyone look more worried then he did she, I told her it was his first and he was very worried she said poor guy she continued the ultra sound and after about 10 minutes she said what is his name I said Dave she said ok dont move so with a wond in my hoo haw she went to the door where she realized he was trying to listen to what was going on and she said dear lord she said come in she told him this is against everything I do you are not suposed to be in here but I felt so sorry for you cause you are worried she said sit down so he sat next to me and she said this is you baby and we got to see it and then she pointed out all the different parts and his heartbeat and she said the little one is moving all over the place in there so she then printed out two pictures of the Ultra Sound and said let me get you an envelope and dont show ANYONE while you are in this hospital or it is my ass. she was very very nice and then I got wheeled back into the room and the doc came in and said that all my blood work was good and that he wanted to do a Pelvic exam so see how the blleding was which had stopped for the most part he did that and checked my cervix and said it was still closed so that was good he said I had a large sub cologinal (something like that) bleeding that most women have but he said normally we do not even mention it but since your was so large we wanted to let you know he said there is still a chance you could miscarry or there is a chance you will go to term like normal he said that if my cervix opened that it was going to lead to a miscarrage but for now it looked ok he put me on bed rest from work for 7 days he also said if we can get you to at least 20 weeks everything should be fine cause then the fetus would be viable outside the womb so he said lets focus on 20 weeks it sucks and it is slightly stressful but you know what god let this happen since I was on the pill and got pregnant if he decides that the baby will not be healthy and I loose it it will be very sad but the DBF and I have talked about it and we know anything can happen we are just taking it one day at a time we are crossing our fingers everything will go as planned and that he/she is a healthy baby so any prayers would be helpful for my little miracle bambio.
