10...9...8...7...6...

Because of my previous spotting my OB has been cautious and wanted me to come in today for an ultrasound. I was originally scheduled for the 11th but since I went in today I will skip that one. So anyway, I had my appointment today and my bambino is doing GREAT! It is amazing how much he has changed in less than 2 weeks! Before he was just a little blobby thing with a heartbeat. Now he has some definition. I saw his little head and his feet kicking. He was squirming around and I loved it! It did my heart good to know that he is fine. Placenta looks great and there were no bleeds. Praise the Lord!!

While there I asked my OB when I can officially stop all of my medication. I was told to stop them when my 2nd trimester starts. Well, that day varies depending on what site you look on or who you ask. So I asked the expert. He said that my last day is....drum roll please.....Feb the 12th!!!! Ten more days!!!! WOOT! I am so stinkin' excited I am can hardly stand it! Last week I ordered enough heparin and PIO to get me through. I have to order another 24 Estrace tablets and THAT IS IT! I am just giddy here! On the 13th I am going to sleep in. No alarm. No shot. Not pills. Ahh.....bliss! The official countdown begins!
