all is good! so all looks good. we had our ultrasound. the technician wasn't too happy with me. i ended up going to the bathroom cause i just couldn't hold it any longer and as soon as she saw the monitor she said 'you have an empty bladder' and said normally we have to reschedule this ultrasound.. but i'll see what i can do.
whoops!
so she gave a due date of jan 7. she said it's not accurate though because she couldn't take exact measurements because i didn't have a full bladder. we saw the heartbeat and she took it and it was 170 something.. and then we were asking if that's high cause it sounded high and she said it could be a number of things, like if i had something sweet right before going there. she then took the heartrate again after a few minutes and said 'ya, see, now it's at 162, so that's perfectly normal'.
we then had our apt with the OB. he gave us his blessing to continue to see the midwife and we don't have to see him anymore. i don't have to take those hormone pills anymore either! YAY! he says i'm pass the miscarriage phase and that everything looks good.
he also took the Doppler to my belly too and also found a heartbeat but couldn't tell me what it was cause his didn't show it.
so now we're rest assured and can feel a little more comfortable telling people about our happy news! i still feel a little insecure about it all. i remember with jayden as soon as 12 weeks hit we wanted to tell the whole world! i have the same sort of feeling that i want to tell everyone, but i'm still a little scared even after seeing and hearing the heartbeat.
maybe i'll never be 100% assured until he/she is born. |
