Week 6: About a month after Vivian's miscarriage we found out that she was pregnant again.  We were very excited, but equally worried.  We know that all our hopes of having a family can just disappear.  The more we plan and think about life with a baby, the sadder we may be if this pregnancy ends again.  Luckily our odds are good.  The chance of us having a miscarriage is not higher, even if we had already had one.  In fact, the chances aren't higher until there are three or more previous miscarriages.  Still, we don't want to experience the sadness of another loss and we worry because we have no way of controlling the outcome.  We can only pray that everything turns out okay.  It's week seven right now and the good news is that Vivian is still pregnant.  We had always feared going into the week six ultrasound and seeing an empty sack, but this time we saw a yolk sack, fetal pole, and even heard a heartbeat!  This is always an emotional moment for parents, but for us it was a confirmation that there is now an embryo, the size of a grain of rice, and there is really hope that will one day he/she will get a chance at life!
