I have my appointment in about 90 minutes. I'm only a tiny bit nervous, mostly excited to hear baby boy's heartbeat again. I think after this appointment I will finally announce at work. I'm running out of baggy work shirts to hide my bump!

I had an appointment this morning. It was super quick. Pee in a cup, blood pressure, weight, done. I scheduled the anatomy scan for 5 weeks from now. Excited for that one. But it's president's day, so DC is closed. I've never had to bring DS with me to an appointment before. Hopefully H will be able to come too.

I hopefully had my last bloodwork with the RE this morning and have an NT scan later today.

My OB took bloodwork when I was there last week, but I'm not sure if it'll tell me the sex of the baby. I was fine waiting, but I feel a sudden urge to know this minute.

Had a very reassuringly routine appointment. DD got to listen to the heartbeat, which was neat.

I have my anatomy scan scheduled for Presidents Day.

So I think the NT scan went well. She didn't offer up much information, but did say she thinks the risk are very minimal. They did do bloodwork, but it won't tell me the sex. Whomp, whomp.

Had appointment yesterday and heart HB- all was good.
Today has been a flurry of calls with doctors.

Last night I had spotting so I called OB this morning and they said it's still likely from the sub chorionic hematoma discovered on ultrasound from end of December and not to worry.

Then they called and said my thyroid levels were low on blood yesterday and I've been waiting all day for my endo to review and determine if we need to adjust my dose. My main endo isn't in the office so it's the covering Doctor. Seriously irritated I have no decision made yet and still just waiting!

I finally had an appointment today! Dd came with me for a little Mommy time. She loved getting to hear the heartbeat and the baby move. He sent me over to get the prenatal blood work drawn. I sat dd in the chair across from me so she couldn't really see. Well she wanted to see! She came right on up beside me so she could check it all out. I was amazed at how grown up she acted about everything. She will be 4 in a month. It was so great to have a good appointment and I feel like this is really real and all is good now. My next appt is Feb 17th for the Anatomy scan! Can't wait to see this little one!
