We have our follow-up appt with the pediatric cardiologist at 7:45am (est).  Very nervous to see what is going to come of this. I just hope it isn't as severe as it could be.  Then at 11:00 we have an appt. with the genetics counselor.  Busy day today.

That's what I thought. It's official. "Nervcited" is how you feel before your a/s.

Keep us posted @kjohnson1002

I feel like this accurately portrays the complex emotions of one who is nervcited:

Mrs. Rivera

My fetal echo is 2:30 EST at Boston Children's Hospital. I'm not worried, baby's heart looked great at A/S. I'm high risk for heart problems with type 1 diabetes, and was told by my OB before I was even pregnant that they would send me for an echo.

Good luck @kjohnson1002!!

SA1112

Mine is 7:45 (est)...got here early thanks to the snow. I'm nervcited as well

Today is just my weekly check up. In two weeks we go to our High Risk anatomy scan and that's at 7 am. Seems super early to me lol

Puka99

Kelly good luck! I hope all is okay

Good luck today everyone!!

Progesterone shot in the butt! Woo!

Follow-up appointment to our a/s at 12:45 EST. Today I start rotating doctors, which kind of stinks because at our a/s yesterday the tech said I'd be getting an u/s every four weeks to monitor my fibroids. I'd rather hear that from my primary OB (who didn't seem too concerned about the fibroids last time) so I really wanted to see him and get it straightened out.

ETA: good luck today ladies! And be careful if anyone is driving in the snow.

Just a check up at 10:15.  BUT, I'll finally get to make the appointment for my a/s!  Yay!!

Good luck to everyone with a/s appointments today.

@flerlgirl has been calling her LO "she," hasn't she? Is that a default pronoun or did I miss her announcement?

Nervcited, as interpreted by Chandler:

I have my a/s us at 2:45 pacific. Nervcited about sums it up! I'm really hoping baby is healthy and gives a good shot, I was team green with my first and NEED to know the sex this time!! Hope everyone's appts go well today, i can't wait for updates tonight!

ADalesa29

Good luck today ladies. Keep us updated!

SA1112

Everything went great this morning.... Baby looks healthy! Still Team Green Here's one of the pics we got.

lola4411

just a check up today but always fun to hear baby boy's heartbeat! i am kinda nervous to step on the scale because i have totally popped out the past couple of weeks.  we dont have a scale at home so i have no idea what that number is going to be...

flerlgirl

@junemom3, I am team pink! I found out at 16 weeks (I get a monthly u/s because I am awesome) and I didn't really announce it anywhere. @deepoceanmama is clearly stalking me because she knows!!

And my appointment went really well! Baby girl is measuring a little ahead and looked totally healthy! She even smiled at us and it was the scariest frickin thing I've ever seen but she is MY scary baby and I love her anyway. 

GL to everyone today!

mrsbradymama

Had my regular prenatal appt this morning. Baby's heartbeat was a healthy 150, just love hearing that sound!!! The doctor changed my due date AGAIN today too, looks like the new (and hopefully final) date is June 30! Can't wait for my a/s on Friday to see my LO again!

flojo973

Good luck everyone!

We had our anatomy u/s today at nine and we have a healthy baby girl so team pink for us!!!!

mjdavies

I had a take two today on the a/s because baby boy didn't want to give us a profile view last time. We finally got one today and he waved at us! He is healthy and I couldn't be more relieved. Good luck to everyone today seeing their LOs!

mrs_drc_rn

OB confirmed today that I'll be going back every four weeks for an u/s to monitor my fibroids. One them is half the size of the junior! They're at the top and to the left, which is good, so hopefully not other fibroids develop around the cervix. I'm 18 weeks and she said my uterus is the size of someone who is 23 weeks.

Swilkins1122 Yikes! Glad that the placement is ok. Hope things continue to be fine!

@flerlgirl,

After a very long morning, we are back.  Follow-up scan showed that there is definitely a narrowing (coarctaction of the aorta) but that it is connected which is good.  we will need to deliver at Columbia in NY so we have a team ready for when the baby is born.  They will continue to monitor me and the baby to see how the rest of the heart progresses.  They sent us to a genetic counselor who proceeded to scare me with needing an amnio because now that there is a heart defect there is a greater chance of other defects (down's or trisomy).  I chose to do Harmony for now.  I don't know how I feel about an amnio.  So...im sad there is something wrong with my baby boy.
