Award goes to....
I would like to give this to my husband - the 'SuperSperm' award. Without going into the lovely details {that I have promised to keep quiet} about our sex life - He HAS to have super sperm in order for me to have gotten pregnant. Especially with how far along I am........
According to the US technician today I am somewhere around 3 weeks gestation (so 5 weeks for most people). That is quite a bit off from my calculations, but apparently if the SuperSperm are defying the odds and getting me pregnant in the first place and then the timing.... well it must be a God-thing. That is the only answer.
My beta numbers that I had drawn on June 1st (781)& June 3rd (1683) doubled in 40.83 hours, so I know that part is okay. Today I was only able to see, as I like to call it, 'the black hole'. We think we were able to see the beginning of the fetal pole, but it was so hard to see. *I am wondering how old the equipment is, but I digress.....* I was told I could come back in 3-4 weeks to get a more accurate date, but at this point I don't know if I want to do anything more invasive. Here is an US picture (NOT mine!) of what I was able to see today.
So - I am now unofficially 5 weeks pregnant!
