Well, I had another visit in Chicago on Wednesday. We met with my doctor and had another ultrasound!
The baby is getting big!! Its actually starting to look like a baby instead of just a blob! I got some really REALLY good ultrasound pictures but for some reason I can't get this blog to upload them right. So I'll play with that over the weekend and see if I can get it to work.
On the ultrasound we could see both legs, feet, arms, hands, eyes, ears and just well, everything!!! There is definately a baby in there. The heartbeat was at 143 and going strong.
I met with Dr. Stephenson and she is impressed with how well we're doing!! Im so happy that shes so happy! She said everything looks "perfect". Thats what I like to hear.
I go back on June 21st for my first trimester screening. I had this done with Callie as well, and its just some blood work and a very detailed ultrasound to check for the chance of birth defects. Since Im not a "spring chicken" anymore, the doctors thought it would be good for us do to the screening. No problems.
Then on June 28th I meet with my new doctor. I'll graduate from Dr. Stephensons care and see a high risk OB there in Chicago. Im a little nervous but since Dr. S referred me, Im sure she'll be a great doctor. Dr. S will still keep tabs on us and we'll see her from time to time with the pregnancy too! Then on June 29 I will see Dr. Bakris again for my blood pressure. Oh boy! Lots of visits.
All in all everything is GREAT!! Ive got a belly and Im loving being pregnant. I think I was born to be pregnant!! I just wish Callie & my grandparents were here to go through it with me! Atleast they're watching from above!
Take care... until next time.....
