My Teddy Graham

Well my 8am appt ended up being changed to 11:40 and I was finally seen at 12:30 - but anyhow, I'm home now and the baby is fine! Great even. We got to hear and see the heartbeat today! Up to 156 bpm! That was so cool. The heartbeat sounds like a 'swoosh' noise! My ultrasound lasted a long time too because the Dr. wanted a side view of the baby for dating the pregnancy and all he could get was the back or front! I think the Dr. finally said baby T. measured 8+3, which is right on schedule with the last scan, but still two days behind my EDD. I should be 8+5 today, and they aren't planning to change that, so baby is just measuring a little behind, but they say that I'm well within normal limits. I'm just so excited! I bet we looked at the baby for 15 minutes or more! I could see the little arms moving a bit and once it looked like he kicked the yolk sac, and that was a little unreal. From the front, baby T. looks just like a teddy graham! lol! (okay maybe without the ears). Dr. said he couldn't tell much about the spotting I've been having, but the SCH is still there and he said it looked 'stable'. He didn't get an actual measurement of it so I don't know if it's smaller or larger or just the same. He didn't seem very concerned at all about it this time! I even had to bring it up!!! I think I'm going to follow up one more time with him and in the meantime figure out where I'm going to switch over to. I have heard really good things about Dr. Federici in Suffolk, so I'll venture into that later this week! Next appt. - two weeks.
