ob visit was mostly full of aaughhhhhhhh

Sorry but this is a copy and past from somewhere else.  I've been meaning to update, but I've been too tired this week.


OK so appointment had its ups and downs. Up side the NT scan showed baby actually measured ahead at 11 weeks 5 days which moved my due date up to Aug. 2. And that the thickness was within normal range 1.18 or something like that. So that's good news. Blood draw results from last ob visit were good. Everything within normal range except for the hemoglobin and something else blood related were a bit low, but not by much. I'm back up to 150lbs, so I feel like I'm doing OK with weight gain so far.


My aauggghhh moments...doc did not have my blood results from the NT scan. So even though the scan showed normal levels, without the blood, we don't know the risk for sure yet. I have to call he place I went to tomorrow and see if they have the results or not or find out how to get them over to my doctor. My other aaughhh moment...the freaking battery died on the doppler so we couldn't hear the heart beat. He did offer it up for me to go see him next week to hear, I'll see what I'll do depending on the blood results. My final aaugghhh moment is that he wants me to take the progesterone for another week. BLAH! Just when I thought I was done, it sucked me back in. I felt bad for DH. He left work early to meet me there just to hear the heart beat. Next time I go see him I'm bringing a double A battery just in case.

had my nt scan on Tuesday

All appeared to be fine.  I won't know full results till my follow up with my OB on Monday.  I did get to see my little rainbow baby being active and had a lovely heart rate of 168 beats per minutes.  I also got to hear the heart beat for a brief second, but by the time I realized what it was it was gone.  The tech didn't warn me that she was turning on the sound or turning it off.  She also didn't bother to look and see if the pelvic bone development gave any indication as to the baby's sex.  I was really hoping for a sneak peak at the possible sex.  Another good things is that Rayne measured right on target. Baby finally caught up.  I knew (s)he would, I just feel better knowing it.  


OK I've blabbed enough it's time for pictures...

if one more person...

comments on my very limited caffeine, or the one weekly unhealthy meal I allow myself...is going to get my foot shoved so far up their fucking ass that my size 9 will show in between their two front teeth!  Look mofos I eat very healthily for the most part.  I cut out all my damn coffee and only have one can of soda with lunch Monday-Friday.  If I'm at home, soda isn't even in the fucking fridge.  At home I eat a decent well balanced meal and my breakfast are healthy too.  I snack on fruit a few times a day.  So if you see me giving in to a soda, half a cup of coffee (which I haven't had in weeks), a bag of chips, or some greasy meal.  Leave me be.  I will not be held accountable for the stump you will most likely be pulling back!  K, we got that? Is that clear!!!  Fucking assholes on their high horses.  Let me see you pregnant and then try and eat nothing but healthy all the damn time.  Oh wait...you will never be pregnant because a. you're a man, or b. have officially hit menopause and have been there for years!


ASSHOLES!

It feels like forever since I've updated

Things are moving along just fine.  My beta from last time was nice and high, so was my progesterone so the doc dropped me down to once a day instead of twice. woot  My belly is getting bigger and harder to hide now.  Not that I'm trying but it's noticeable now.  I'm still tired all the time and face is breaking out here and there.  BLAH  I'm getting cravings for things but nothing crazy, yet.  All in all things are as they should.  I do have to go in for a nuchal translucensy (NT) scan.  It was either that or the amnio and I'm sorry doc, but the fact that I turn 35 in a few days is not reason enough for me to have you stick a large needle in my belly that comes with a risk of miscarriage.  Now, if the NT scan shows that something isn't right, then I'll do it, but not before then.  OK time for a belly shot...
