The following weeks we went up a few times for ultrasounds to see growth, see the heart beat and see our beautiful baby growing and loving its new home. The wonderful thing about having IVF is the frequent monitoring after conception. We went every two weeks for ultrasounds and blood work. At 10 weeks after our ultrasound looked good we were released back to Dr. Friesen in Lincoln.

Each ultrasound we were looking at the baby to see growth, one of the main signs of good growth is measuring the crown to rump length of the baby. More on crown to rump length here:

At 6 week ultrasound on September 10, 2013 we were able to see the heartbeat, it was still to early to hear anything as the little heart is so tiny but we could see the flicker of the light on the screen.
Our 8 week ultrasound we were able to hear the heartbeat on September 25, 2013. We were doing well and they allowed us to taper off of our progesterone shots around 10 weeks.
Once we were released back to Dr. Friesen we had a 12 week ultrasound on October 23, 2013. Our normal OB pregnancy doctors appointment continued and we went on to have a very normal rest of our pregnancy. We were blessed to have a great smooth pregnancy.
