I've been slacking on updates!

Ok, so I had my appt on May 15. The doc still says that I'm about 1 week later than I thought I was. She gave me a due date of 12/12. The baby is growing and I seen the heartbeat again. I decided that I wanted to have the First Trimester Screening to detect for Downs Syndrome as I'd have another U/S on a better machine & see if they measured the bean about the same as the doc. The doc also gave me a 1 hr glucose order to have done before my next appt which is actually today!



I had the First Trimester Screening done on May 29. The baby looked great and was moving around! Very exciting. The U/S tech let me hear the heartbeat and I had her measure it. It was at 154 that day. She measured the bean and told me that if it were her, she'd keep my due date where it was according to my LMP, which would be about 12/5. But she measured me at 12 wks, 5 days which makes my due date 12/6. lol I'm going with 12/6 for now until someone can convince me otherwise!

Yesterday I went and did the 1 hr glucose test. I am not sure they'd have results today when I go for my appt this afternoon, but at least it's done. Today I should be able to hear the heartbeat again and I'm not sure what else they'll do. I do get to meet one of the other doctors in the office though and probably ask any questions I might have.

So, that's the grand update.
