Weekend Recap!

I am so glad it's Monday because that means we are closer to Thursday, which is my big ultrasound day! The weekend was a roller coaster for me.

Greg left on Saturday morning for a fishing trip in Wisconsin with his dad, uncle & cousin. After he left, I went to the Farmers Market and ran a few other errands. While out I started to feel a little funny and my back started to ache pretty badly, so I finished up so I could get back home. Once home, I noticed I had started spotting again. I had a bit of implantation spotting before my beta, but since getting a positive, I had not had any spotting at all. I tried to stay calm and lay down on the couch and drink lots of water, but it was impossible bc I had so much to do. Around 12 I left to go down to my parents, and I stopped for lunch along the way and saw that I was still spotting. I got to my parents. Still spotting. I hung out there all afternoon, laid down for a while. Still spotting. Went to mass, went to dinner. Still spotting. I was pretty much broken hearted by the time I climbed into bed at 9:30. I had texted Greg throughout the day letting him know about the spotting, but he told me to remain calm about it. So, as I laid in bed, I begged God and St. Gerard to watch over my baby and take care of it and me.

I woke up Sunday to no spotting! Yeah! I had a pretty fun day with my parents, swam at my brothers, visited with my nieces and nephews and brothers and sisters-in-law and drove home late in the afternoon. It was a long day and I was burnt from the sun and tired from all the activity! I went to bed tired but very happy :)

So today, I am 5w5d and so happy I can't wipe the smile from my face! I wish my u/s was today- in fact, it would have been right at this very moment- but Greg HAS to be here for the first one and I wouldn't do it without him! So, just a few more days :) I cannot wait until Wednesday when I hit the 6 week mark!
