June 16th 2014: Colours of the rainbow

June 16th 2014 - the most colourful (yes colours of the rainbow) and wonderful email arrived.

WE ARE OFFICIALLY PREGNANT!

Tears of joy, a weight lifted off our shoulders, its finally happening for us.

Panic started to creep in... what if our surrogate miscarries? what if it isn't real and just a dream, what if its a chemical pregnancy, what if they sent the email to the wrong person (why I ever thought this I'm not sure, we have found SCI to be very careful and send out accurate information always)

Dear Jessica & Samvid,

cOnGrAtULaTiOnS...!!!

We would like to inform you that as per our schedule we have done the Beta HCG test for  Ms U
We are happy to inform you that her beta value is 408.22, which is very good.

Please find the attached file for the same.
We would like to congratulate you as you are pregnant now.
We will now do a USG scan for her within 1 week to check the pregnancy sacs.

Once her scan will be done, we will get back to you at the earliest.

SCI wishing you good luck for this beautiful journey ahead.



And I thought the first "2 week wait" was the hardest. WRONG! the 2 week wait to see the first scan and have confirmation of a heart beat is the hardest! The end of June finally arrived with the 1st of many ultrasound images that will flood our inbox. The image below shows two well-defined gestational sacs - corresponding to 4 weeks and 2 days.

This was the most amazing evening we had, celebrated with champagne and dinner with family.

2 well-defined sacs. ( I like the sound of 'well-defined'). TWINS! we could not be happier. Now to keep it a secret until 12 wk scan confirmation - ha ha Good luck to us.
