Home again, home again

I am home from my appointment. What a lllllllloooooooonnnnnnngggggg day! It didn't help that I didn't sleep well. Jazzie and Pre were missing until about 1am and Jazz got skunked and Pre rolled in something, so I had to bath them both. Ugh! Not what I wanted to do at 1 in the morning.

So, I got there at 3:40 and at 3:45 they called me back to do the questionnaire. While doing that, she informed me that they typically do ultrasounds at 20 weeks only. Hmmmm... I tried to say I was supposed to get one today. She ignored me. Well, I went in the exam room and put on that lovely gown. And waited for 15 minutes, stressing about whether or not I was going to get an ultrasound. So, finally the doctor came in, asking if I had the scan yet. I said no, so she seemed a bit irritated but took it ok. So, she did what she needed to do and then sent me to the u/s tech. That was absoluletly amazing!! She first started on my belly and we could see the little bean, but it was tough. So she switched to an internal u/s. I saw the little blob but not a heartbeat - I was scared! Every now and then I saw a flicker but not constant and very sporadic. Then she changed the setting so it would pick up the h/b. It was awesome! The best sound I've ever heard. The first time we listened it was 144 bpm. Then she switched back to get me some pictures. And then went back to get a picture of the hb squiggle. Then the hb was 146 bpm. I measured at 7 weeks 3 days - the dr's wheel has me at 7 weeks and 5 days and I figured out 7 weeks 2 days on the internet. So, measuring right on! The u/s tech gave me a edd of 10/23 and the dr's wheel gave me 10/26... Not quite sure how to figure that out... Shouldn't they be switched?

I have 3 pictures that will be put up as soon as my scanner will work - I can't get it to realize it's connected to the computer.

Next appt is April 7th at 3:30.
