PREGNANCY SCARE!!

Today was one of the scariest nights I have been through in a while. Sorry in advance if this is too much information. I went pee and I saw a drop, half the size of a penny, of pink discharge on my toilet paper. I instantly started bawling and assuming the worst. I tried to stay calm, as I know panic will only make matters worse.

I ran into the bedroom and did some research. Everyone said that it was common, and unless it was bright red and a lot of blood assisted with cramping, it was nothing to worry about. It helped me calm down a little, but the thought of ANYTHING being wrong with my baby, MY BABY, my everything, just killed me. I went into the emergency room.

David was right by my side the entire time, and was so supportive. The doctor was worried because my RH factor (+ or -) blood type is A-. This means that the baby could possibly develop fatal antibodies, causing a miscarriage. He ran blood tests, and did an ultrasound. The whole way to the ultrasound room, I was crying and praying to God to watch over my little angel. Then, the ultrasound tech started the ultrasound....

*my heart stopped* I saw, my baby. Not a "bean" or a "peanut", I saw my BABY. I saw the head, arms, legs, hands, feet, EVERYTHING. I started crying even more. (Darn these pregnancy hormones) Haha. The baby was so perfect in every way. I couldn't believe the miracle I have growing inside of me. I am so blessed. I thank God for blessing me with this gift, and for letting my baby be okay. The baby was turning and moving, a lot. Then the ultrasound tech looks at me and says, "LOOK! The baby is waving at you!" And it was!! I actually saw the baby waving. Oh my gosh.

This is what the baby looked like, breath taking, right?

The baby, and Mommy, were perfectly healthy. The baby's size measured right on track, the heart rate was perfect, and everything is fine. They said that some spotting is totally normal and nothing to worry about. Then they gave me a Rhogam shot for precautionary reasons.

I am so grateful for God watching over my baby, and everything being okay.

I love my little angel more than anything in this entire world. <3
