6 weeks

The last time I wrote a post titled 6 weeks I felt like a had reached a small milestone, though I really had nothing to show for it.  No symptoms that told me I was really pregnant, just a deep down fear that made even writing about being 6 weeks feel like lying.  The next post I would write would be Empty.

I don't have to write about how terrified I am, because you all know that.   I don't really want to talk about symptoms because I know that symptoms really aren't a guarantee that everything is normal and fine.  I am on so much Progesterone anyway that my boobs should be sore and I should be tired.

But I don't think that writing about being 6 weeks this time feels like lying to myself, or fooling myself into believing in something that is not.  I do feel that there is a pregnancy growing inside me.  I am still terrified for the ultrasound on Monday, and know that anything can happen in 5 days, but at the very least, I feel like I have made it further than last time.

I just hope to see a heartbeat.  In 5 days time.

5 days! I know how scary that first ultrasound is, and I hope everything turns out great. I'll be thinking about you and looking forward hearing how Monday goes!

I know how nervous you must be. Everything crossed that your u/s will go wonderfully and you will see that beautiful flickering of the HB. Waiting to hear about the appointment!
