OK since I had some pain issues followed by some what they called "low levels" and had to have them checked with ultrasound and blood work. The last ultrasound I had was 2 weeks ago @ 5w4d with a perfect gestational sac and a lil round yolk sac inside. They also found a subchorionic bleed. I guess this can be from implantation. I have not had any spotting and was feeling very pregnant but the doc wanted a repeat ultrasound to check for dates and check on the bleed. Fast forward to yesterday @ 7w4d and we saw a MUCH larger gestational sac, with a lil bean bigger than its yolk sac and a strong 152bpm. The bleed was also down to only 1/3 of how big it was, so my body is absorbing the implantation blood. So below is our lil bean.....
We had decided to tell everyone (extended family and friends) with a picture we had taken at the desert once we saw the heartbeat. With the prior miscarriages I have had they were all before 8w and I never saw a heartbeat so I feel ok with spreading the news....Here is the picture we took and shared even on the FB world!
We had also recorded the moment when we told our 4 lil munchkins they were going to have a sibling, I did some editing (not very good) and shared that as well. Some of the responses are classic, so glad I recorded this!

Just figured we could all share how we spread the news and maybe give some ideas to some that have yet to share!
