9 weeks today! (convoluted question ment'd)

AGFaso

Geesh it feels like it's taking forever to get past the mark where the baby stopped growing last time.  But I just had a thought, when the Dr said after my D&C that the baby was measuring 8.5 weeks, (I was 12wks5days) do you think he meant the "fetus age" or as if I was "8.5 wks pg?" So when I was 12.5wks then fetal age would have been 10.5 wks to grow past where s/he did last time.

Because if it was the fetal age, then I have to get to "11 weeks pg" to get past the point where the baby stopped growing.

That was convoluted, sorry, I hope you got it.  I have an appointment on Weds, so I'll probably ask there, but just a random thought in my head.  I've been so anxious for this next sonogram bec I fig it would be after the point baby stopped growing last time...Any insight?  Thanks

Not that it matters, because this baby is your sticky baby, but they probably meant 8.5w pregnant.  At least, that's how they always measure it at my office.  Congrats on 9 weeks!

No honey, don't worry too much. It meant that LO never made it past 8.5 weeks. You don't have to make it to 12.5 weeks to be past it.

My missed m/c was discovered at 11 weeks 1 day. Baby never made it past 9 weeks 1 day. Gestational age is always what I went off of for milestones. So it sounds  like you've made it past your milestone!

This. I can't make things bold because my laptop is stubborn BUT "Not that it matters, because this baby is your sticky baby" is what I would have bolded.

Congrats on your milestone!

All of this.  My baby measured 8 weeks (pregnant) too.  I am exactly at that point and praying that this LO keeps growing.

Yep, I'm also in agreement with everyone else.  

Hooray for 9wks!    (I think we're on exactly the same schedule; I turned 9wks today, too.)
