The Last (?) Big Test

Tomorrow is my first OB ultrasound at the clinic.  While for the most part, I expect it to be exciting and revealing in a good way, I have this little hint of doubt in the back of my mind.  You see, this is possibly the last (?) of the big tests.  Tomorrow Dr. H should find a heartbeat or heartbeats of the little bean or beans growing inside of me.  If the heartbeat(s) are there, then this truly is a viable pregnancy.  If they are not, or if they are not strong, then this pregnancy is likely to end.

If I can base health of a pregnancy on symptoms, then I should be good.  I have nearly-constant nausea now, sometimes mild, sometimes moderate, and occasionally severe (though I haven't thrown up yet - just gotten close).  Besides that, I am very tired and a little extra grouchy. I think maybe I have experienced some breast changes, but not nearly as noticeable as last time.

S is going to come along and we've decided not to bring A.  We've decided she'd probably pick up on what we were talking about, and there are no secrets with A.

So wish me luck and a good strong heartbeat or two!  I'll report tomorrow!
