I believe in Dreams and Miracles. I have been so scared to say anything about this pregnancy to anyone. Up until yesterday Dh, a really good friend of mine and Missy were the only one's knew that I was pregnant. I was so scared that if I said something that something would happen. Although with this pregnancy I will say things have felt totally different. I found out a lot earlier this time around, I have had morning sickness on and off really bad, my boobs are really killing me. Although I am rearlly scared I feel in my heart that this is our rainbow baby.
Missy had a dream that I was pregnant. Then Missy texted me awhile ago and said are you pregnant. I just started to laugh because I just ovulated the day before she texted me. I told her I don't know yet since I just ovulated. She texted me back and said I think you are. When the digi said the magical word pregnant I texted her the picture. She text me back and said I fu------ knew it. She made me laugh and cry at the same time. Missy you have been a great friend through alll of this.
With this baby I am doing everything totally different. With my last loss my old OB really put a bad taste in my mouth. He made me feel like the reason why I lost pumpkin was my fault and my age. I told Bill as soon as I found out I was pregnant that I wanted a new start. I called around and found a OB office in a different town which is about an hour away. I like the people I talked to on the phone. They scheduled my first appointmnet for the middle of October. I started to cry on the phone and asked the lady if they could get me in earlier because all of my losses have been between week 6 and 7 and my first appointment with them would be when I was almost 8 weeks. The nurse asked me if she could call me back. She wanted to talk to the doctor after I told her my history. She called me back and said they wanted me to see a high risk doctor first. They made the appointment for me. The high risk doctor I am seeing is two hours away from me. I saw him for the first time 2 weeks ago and I fell in love with him. I love him and his staff. They treat you like you are a person. The doctor sat down with me and really explained things to me. When I went in yesterday for my ultrasound I was so nervouse I was shaking. I love the tech she talked to me like I was person. The ultrasound tech asked me if I had an ultrasound like that before. I said yes that I have had 3 losses. She said oh my goodness. you must be really nervous. She said hurry up and get undress so we can start. The tech talked to me through the whole ultrasound. They have a screen hanging on the wall so you can see what the tech is seeing while they do the ultrasound. I have been through this enough times that I knew what I was looking at. While I was looking at the screen and what we were seeing at first was just a black hole with no baby in it. I started to get really upset. My urteus is very tilted which makes early scans very hard. The tech saw that I was getting nervous. She turned on the sound and we heard the wonderful heartbeat before we found the baby. I started to cry when I heard it. She finally found the baby way at the top. She said where the baby is and my urteus it is hard to get good pictures of the baby. She said the heartbeat was 120. She said that was a great heartbeat. On the screen it said 7 weeks and some days. I forget exactly what days it said. I questioned her on that because she said the baby was measuring 6 weeks and 3 days. She explained to me that the ultrasound machine is designed for a 28 day cycle. My last cycle was 33 days which would put baby measuring ahead one day. Nobody ever explained that to me. She did a lot measurements and took alot of pictures. When she was done I asked her if I could have a picture. She said I already printed out two pictures for you. I started to cry again. My old ob office I had to beg for a picture. After she got done she said the doctor will be in to talk to you. He comes to all early ultrasounds. She said don't be surprised if he rescans you. She said he is a hand on type of doctor and likes to scan people himself. I was shocked when she said the doctor will be in to see me. At my old Ob office my doctor never came in when I had a ultrasound.
I know in my heart that I made the right choice to change doctors. My new OB office took it opon themselves to schedule me with a high risk Ob before I even see them. My high risk doctor is just wonderful. It is worth the hour and two hour drive to see them.
My high risk Ob said everything is looking really good but he did say you are still early. I said I know. I told him that with my losses none of them ever measured where they were supposed to or a day ahead. He said this was really good.
I go back in 4 weeks to see him and I go in two weeks I think to see my regular Ob.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday. When Missy text me and said everybody was thinking of me and prayering I just started to cry. Yes I cry at drop of a hat and I love it.

I am so happy that you found a doctor that you really like. I was in that same situation with our angel baby, my dr was cold hearted and now I have an amazing doctor, my old dr would have never tested DH to find out if the problem was with him(it is) so we would have been trying to trying and nothing happening. I know how freeing that feeling can be. I am so happy for you and will be stalking you in the DDC

Thank you everyone. I think everyone should follow their heart when it comes to changing doctors. Even though I am still really scared having my new doctors are making this easier.
I am happy we are in the same DDC Sam. It helps having other people you know in the ddc.
