There's a heartbeat!

There has been a bit of a long gap between postings here but there has been a lot going on. Had a positive pg test on Christmas Eve! Had a scan on the friday after that to check that the sac was in the uterus - it was! Then had another scan the friday after that to check sac was still there and growing - it was. Then, had a scan today to look for heartbeat and there was one! I was so nervous going in there this morning, and the relief that I felt when she said - 'well, there's a heartbeat!' I just can't even describe. I am measuring about 6.5 weeks. We have a picture and everything. Next step is to make an appointment with a regular old OB/GYN like a normal person. IVF clinic will see me once more before then but thats it. Can't quite believe it yet and it hasn't really sunk in. It was so sweet when I came out of the changing room, the nurse that always takes the blood and never seems to really recognize me every time, gave me a big hug and did the whole fist in the air thing. The other nurse that runs the front desk was also all smiles and congratulations. That was nice.
