Week 6 - First Ultrasound

Lucky Seven Yolk Sac

Lucky Baby Number Seven's First Ultrasound

Robin Elise Weiss

Our doctor is dying to get an ultrasound. They scare the pants off of us. I finally agree to come in. It's not a pretty sight. Just a small sac, a couple of pixels in the middle saying, "Nothing to see folks."

Combined with previously low numbers, spotting and a lack of symptoms, this can't be a good sign. We decide not to tell anyone the "good news."
