We are expecting #3!!!

August 12th we found out we were pregnant. To our surprise!! We have been through a rollercoaster of emotions with getting pregnant the last year or so. We have had 3 miscarriages and had decided that we were done. I didn't want to put my body through that 1 more time. The kids are getting older everyday and that was another reason for our decision to stop. Well God had other plans for us because here we were prego again. Of course at first I was terrified to go through another miscarriage which I was pretty sure would happen. I started going to the doc right away and getting blood work taken to make sure my numbers were ok. They were normal everytime. Then about two weeks ago I started spotting. I called my doctor right away and they didn't seem to concerned. I just knew this was the beginning to the end. I had prepared myself that whole week that I would miscarry. The following week I got an u/s. Monday the 25th of Aug. I thought for sure it wouldn't be good. Well to my surprise we saw a heartbeat. I was so excited to see that. :-) The baby measured 6 weeks 1 day and the heartbeat was 133 bpm. I measured a little bit behind what I thought so it scared me a little. I really tried not to let it get to me. So after that my doc called for another u/s and more blood work. So that is what I did yesterday. I made Sean go with me this time cause I really wanted him to see the heartbeat. It was nothing but wonderful news. The baby measured perfectly to how far along I thought I was. The heartbeat was 170 bpm. We got a picture too. I was so excited to see the baby was growing and still doing good. So my due date is April 18th. Of course I know things can still go wrong but at this point I am feeling a lot better about things since we have seen the heartbeat twice. We have finally told the whole family and friends now. We plan on telling the kids very soon. We just are waiting for the right time. We are so excited and feel very blessed that God has given us this opportunity again. Here is a picture of the little bean at this point. Looks mostly like a blob but you can sorta make out some stuff. :-)
