great u/s!

ohiostategal

I was a nervous wreck last night and this morning, but when we got in there we saw our little baby measuring 3 days ahead with a heartbeat of 173!  There were even arms and one was waving to us.   It was amazing.  Thanks for all the well wishes this morning.  I really was a mess.

Now my RE had previously said that I would come back at 10 weeks for another u/s and then be released to the OB.  He was not there today so we met with a different RE in the practice after the u/s to go over everything.  She said that we could go ahead and just go on to the OB and that if we haven't found one yet by 10 weeks come back in.  Said she usually releases patients earlier than my RE. I think I know what OB I want to go with, but I kinda don't want to give up my 10 week u/s.  Is that wrong?  I was thinking of making my OB appt for 11 weeks or so and keeping the u/s for week 10.  What would you ladies do?

Hey!! I just saw your other post. I am soooo glad all went well today. So happy for you!! I would stay with the RE. My first one kept me till 12 weeks, well that was the plan. Then maybe you can have one at 10 week and 12 weeks. I hope if this works that my new RE keeps me till then or I will be a nervous wreck. I'm going to email you back in a few minutes.

I'm not one to respond about REs right now (I'm really not liking my RE) .. however, if I liked my RE I would probably do what the pp said ... stay till 10 wks then maybe do the NT scan with your OB ...

Congrats on having a great u/s!!

 Glad to hear everything looked great! Congrats!

 

I would call your OB office and see when they can get you in for a first appt and what it usually entails. They might not be able to get you in in 2 weeks and then you would want to keep your 10 week appt at the RE.

I am glad you had a great appt

If I were you, I would call your OB's office and see when the soonest appt is; it may not be for a few weeks after your 10w with your RE. My RE requires, or heavily suggests, that we are seen within 2 weeks of being released from him. I was not able to get in with my OB for 2.5 weeks, but they were able to sqeeze me in for just an early u/s... so, you could ask about that too!

Good luck!

I ditto this - with my frist OB it took awhile to get an appt and then I switched OBs.  I ended up staying with my RE for one u/s after my first OB appt.  I'm an u/s whore though.

Yay!  I just knew it would go great!  Not sure what you should do but when I was released to my OB at 8 weeks, I told him I was very uneasy with going for long periods of time without an u/s so he let me have them every 1.5 weeks until I was in the 2nd tri.  Do you think you could ask the practice ahead of time if they would let you do something like this?  Just a thought to ease your mind.

YAY!  That's such great news!!!

I would see when you can get an appt with the OB. It took me 2 weeks to get in so you will likely need to keep the u/s appt anyway. Congrats on the great day!

So glad to hear that it went well!

Your ob might do an u/s at your first appt.
