I haven't been to this board in ages. I am 5 weeks 6 days pregnant and so excited! Haven't told anyone except a few close friends and my oldest daughter (21).
I had my first appointment with the high risk doctor and he asked if I would like to take a walk down the hall for an ultrasound (YES!). We saw the gestational sac and yolk sac which is he said is perfectly normal to see at this stage.
How soon do you tell people you are expecting? I've had four m/c's so I tend to want to wait a bit. If all is well at the next ultrasound next week we will probably tell the kids. The mfm will be calling me to check on my blood sugar numbers and my kids will figure out something is up. Not to mention my resuming the use of insulin.
My daughter and I laughed and laughed when I told her. She stopped over today to see how my appointment went and we remembered that my mil usually tends to be shocked at my pregnancy announcements. This one might well leave her speechless.
