8 Week Ultrasound

I'm really lucky to work where I do now that I'm pregnant. For those of you that don't know, I'm an RN in the Neonatal ICU at Miami Valley Hospital. Now, for the most part, I haven't felt too terribly sick so far this pregnancy. However, there was one day last week that I was reeeeally sick. I'm talking, I had stuff coming out from all directions. Bless Rory's little heart. I'm sure he was completely disgusted but he was changing out my puke bag nonetheless. When I woke up the next morning I still wasn't feeling well but went to work anyways. I was still puking at work but then I started to notice that I was bleeding a little bit. This is why I say I'm lucky to work where I do right now. Not only do I frequently pass my OB-GYN in the hallways but his office is one floor up from where I'm at. So when I started to bleed I just made a call up to my doc and they had me down for an ultrasound in no time. The ultrasound showed that everything was fine. They said that they saw no signs of bleeding in my uterus. They said it must have been from all the puking and pooping (hey, we're being honest here, folks) from the night before. AND I got to see the little heart fluttering. Rory was jealous : ) So here is a picture of our little lima bean.
