scary couple of weeks

hey there, I am now entering into my 10th week of my 1st pregnancy, at about 7 weeks I started spotting and I freaked out, so went straight to the Dr and got sent for an ultra sound, everything was fine, then on the 13th of Nov 2006, I started bleeding heavily and suddenly, so me, my husband and my mother went straight to the emergency room, after waiting for hours they took blood and then finally said there was nothing they could do, so we were sent home at 4am in the morning { we had been there since 10pm,.
A week later I went in for another ultrasound, this time with hubby at my side, we saw the baby moving around and kicking and waving, and heard it's little heart beat from the monitor, hubby started getting teary eyed at seeing pics of our baby for the first time, it was such a relief to see that he/she was alright, Doctors dont give any sympathy about a possible miscarriage, they just let us sit and stew in the waiting rooms.... we still dont know what caused the bleeding, but it doesnt always mean there's something wrong........good luck everyone,......

Pregnant and blessed

My husband and I were so excited when we found out we were pregnant in late July. It was so so wonderful knowing that this little life was with in me. On August 18th our precious angel went to be with the Lord. The miscarriage made me realize how fragile life is. It was painful, both mentally and physically.
That was a little over three months ago. I went to the dr last Wednesday about something totally unrelated to babies and she asked when my period was due, and I told her I should start any time now(my periods had been a little screwed up from the miscarriage but normally very scheduled) So she asked if she could try a pregnancy test, of course i said yes. The whole time she was gone, which was only probably two minutes but felt like an eternity, I was telling myself dont be silly, you are not pregnant. And I really honestly did not think I was. So she came back in and said Maybe and showed me what she said was one of the lightest second lines she had ever seen. I was surprised that there was even a possibility! So she sent me to get blood work and I went to work. I was so excited all day and could barely focus as I awaited the news. Around 3pm I could stand it no longer and I called the drs office and sure enough the results had just come in. The nurse gets on the phone and said well the second tests to see how far along you are havent come back yet. I said WHAT?!!!So I am pregnant?! The nurse laughed and said I was. I was soooo happy but wished my husband was there to hear it with me. He is my best friend and in this with me 100%. I praise God every day for giving us this baby and a wonderful husband. I am still nervous since it is still very early in the pregnancy (I am only five weeks and was around six weeks when I miscarried) but I know that it is all in God's control and not mine. I pray that you all have wonderful peaceful pregnancies!

Thankful
