BLESSINGS!

Well it has been a while since I have posted last but this last week or so has just been absolutley CRAZY!!! So here goes...Zach and I had a doctors appointment to go into to see our babies little heartbeat last Monday (I know it has been a while). Our appointment was at 5:30 and when we got there they told us it would be about an hour and a half wait which was fine with us just as long as we got in well 8:30 rolls around and our name is FINALLY called. We go back to do the usuals blood pressure, wieght ect. We get to our room and the doctor comes in and starts to do the ultra sound. I could tell by the look on his face that something was wrong or just not right. There was no heartbeat to be heard or even seen, he said that things weren't looking like he would like them to look at this point in our pregancy, and there was also blood around the sac of the baby. I immediately start to think of all of the things that could go wrong, (that is the pesimist in me mom I would like to know where that came from?!) He did tell us at that time that he wasn't saying that we would miscarry but he wanted to see better then that. He sent me into to get my hCG levels tested at the hospital. (Sometime in between 7-12 weeks of pregnancy women's hcg level drastically increase and they shoud double within 48 hours then after that they just slowly increase up until your last month or so and then they jump up again.) I had to go to the hospital 2 times 48 hours apart so we could see if my levels had doubled. Talk about a long 48 hours I was so scared I didn't do anything. I did make a special effort to go to the temple with my mom and also have Zach give me a blessing, I knew that if there was any way our little one would pull through we would need all the help that we could get and that help could be through blessings of our wonderful Gospel. Thursday came and I was told that if I hadn't hear anything by about 10 in the morning to call and find out what is going on. As I picked up the phone my heart was pounding I was so nervous, the fate of my little baby was just waiting on the results to come back. When I finally got through to someone they told me that my levels didn't double and my heart sank immediatley...then she proceeded to tell me that the levels were so high that there was no possible way for them to double. I then was told that my doctor wanted to see me and once again negative thought flew directly into my head. There is only one reason he would want to see us in person and that is to give us bad news. Our appointment was at 12:20 and of course when we got there he was running behind and we had to wait another 3 hours...I was so nervous and I just sat there all emotional and waited patiently for my name to be called. Once we were back in the room my and I became even more nervous. The Dr. finally came in and asked how things were going? My reply was "I don't know how about you tell me whats going on and then I will let you know!" We then had our ultra sound and he was so surpised everything was GREAT!!! It was like night and day. He showed us where we could see our little guys heartbeat. He told us that he had fully prepared himself to give us bad news but there was just nothing bad to say. I think that I let out a huge sigh of relief and I felt like a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. It is so strange to see the difference that 3 days makes. Although personally I know in my heart that the only reason we still have our little blob is because of priesthood blessings and temple prayers. Thank you to all of you who have kept us in your prayers! We love you all!
