Mixed Emotions!

I had an ultrasound appointment this week and the results broke my heart and warmed it at the same time. This is hard for me to write about because it was a hard experience to go through. When we were doing the procedure the doctor determined that one of the twins failed to progress. My body and the other placenta had absorbed most of the baby. That was crushing but in that he also found a baby that is thriving. There is one baby in there growing well and had a strong heartbeat of 168bpm. It is hard for me because for most everyone, except the parents, it is something that happened to them not me. And yes it wasn't my baby but I was excited about it. This was very unexpected and a big shock. Now we are focusing on the remaining baby. I was finally released from the fertility clinic and will be moving on with my OB. My medication will be tapered and I will be done in lest than two weeks.  I am excited that we have a healthy pregnancy and just have to believe it will continue that way! Wish me luck!
