Oh Colleen! What a sweet ultrasound! I hopet that the progesterone

kicks in and does nothing but awesome for you and your peanut!! I

know you must be so excited! I had to be on progesterone too..was on

crinone gel! I had 2 miscarriages previously and was not on any

progesterone support... so I really hope that this is the stickiest

pregnancy for you! I just know it will be! And I am happy that you

found such an awesome practice! Keep us updated!

Thats so awesome, Colleen! I had problems with bleeding in the first

trimester, so had an u/s at 6,7,10 and 12 weeks. I tell you, the

little twinkling light that is the heart beat at 6 weeks made me cry

from happiness, and every time I go in now, it thrills me to no

end...What a treasure these u/s are...And, how reassuring last week

to hear my baby on the doppler at the Dr's...just wait, it is the

most thrilling thing..

All the best,

Isn't it great feeling when you see that little flicker of a heartbeat. I wish

you all the best with this pregnancy.
