Week 7 Pregnancy Photo Journal

This week was eventful to say the least!  Morning sickness kicked in to stay (at least for a while!) and I ended up in the Emergency Room with a threatened miscarriage.  Thankfully, while there they did an ultrasound and our little one was doing just fine.  I also got to experience one of the most precious things of pregnancy, hearing the heartbeat!  I was lucky enough to hear it for the first time at the hospital and then 2 days later at my follow up appointment where we discovered that our little one will most likely be perfectly fine!  Praise God!
Day dreaming!

My tummy is usually pretty pointy for the first few weeks.

Our precious little blessing!

Week 7 tip:  Experiencing bleeding?  Call your provider asap!  Actually, many women experience spotting at one time or another during pregnancy but it could be an early indicator of miscarriage.  Your provider will order a blood test to check hormone levels and will do an ultrasound to both check on the baby and try and find the reason/source behind any bleeding.
