One Year Later

Last year on this day we were told that our first pregnancy was not viable. It was life changing news. We still love and miss our first baby. Not a day goes by that I don't imagine where our lives would be if we had a healthy 4 month old right now.  In ways we have healed and in others we haven't. I was not happy with the way our first miscarriage was managed. I still am sad my uterine septum wasn't found at this time, as it could have saved us the heart ache of our second loss and would have given us some explanation for the loss.

Today, exactly one year later we were able to see our healthy baby moving around with a beautiful heartbeat. We had our first OB appointment today. It was very reassuring. Our OB is great. He gave us a new sense of hope that although I am high risk, things should be okay. We had a portable ultrasound done and could see the baby sucking and even saw the baby have a hiccup. We saw the little feet. I remember when the whole baby was the size it's foot is now. Amazing how fast they grow! The heart is so big now and is even visible on the picture we got. I am very thankful we were given this ultrasound and a little picture.
