We had quite a storm come through last night and Emily's internet is down. I spoke to a mutual friend and Emily saw the heartbeat.  I'll let Emily give you all the details.

Thank you all for your prayers...The good news is that this snowbaby has a good heartbeat! Praising God! Also, the baby measured in close in line with 13 weeks.. good b/c I always measure way far behind. The bad news is that one of two possibilities are going on in utero with the baby...
one: I have a 4 inch placenta lobe (possible twin being reabsorbed).. or
two: I have a growing (4 inches at the moment) uterine fibroidthat will need to be monitored closely for change in size that could damage the baby's development or possible preterm delivery or loss. The good news with this is that it is on the opposite side of the placenta. My High risk doctor is feeling like this might be the cause of the two losses I had at 18 and 16 weeks due to perhaps the placenta trying to attach to the fibroid and not receiving nutrition.
Both of these would account for all of the bleeding I had the first two months (hence why I didn't expect a pregnancy)
My Doctor wants me to come back Monday morning for another ultrasound and he has put in for a consult for me to see the perinatal doctor who will look at the baby closely through the ultrasound.
He asked me not to worry, but after hearing there is a concern and he wants me back in less that a week I wonder.
He said he wants to see if we can make it through the second trimester and then look at options.. I guess based on the size of the fibroid then.
Ugh... I am sort of a wreck now, but trying to stay focused on God's will in all this. I am going to post two pics on my blog from the Ultrasound, one showing the fibroid with baby's face peeking over.

Wow, Emily, that's a lot to absorb. The good news is that your baby is fine so far and that the doctors have found things to look for and monitor. I'm praying!

Emily,
I want to offer you hope. 43 years ago, my mother-in-law, who was 38, learned that she was pregnant with twins, 16 years after having her last baby. And then she learned she had a uterine fibroid that was growing at an alarming rate. The doctor suggested terminating the pregnancy. She refused. And the babies and the fibroid went to term. She delivered two healthy babies (and a fibroid) by C-section. One was a girl; the other was my husband. We've come a very long way technologically since then. You can do this!
St. Gianna, pray for us!

Emily, you have alot to take in at present...it is good that this precious one is placed differently in utero in regards to the fibroid...praying for dear, dear baby Emily! 
Elizabeth, a beautiful, amazing story and just think of the the blessings that have come from one mother saying 'no' I suppose it must be revealed to these doctors in the next life what would have unfolded (I wouldn't have, rather) if a mother had listened to their counsels.
