I really liked the OB, and my u/s went well. The baby is measuring "about 8 1/2 weeks" according to the Dr. She measured from a few different angles and I saw 8w0d at one angle, 8w2d at another angle, and a few other numbers flashed across the screen, but I didn't pay too much attention b/c she said everything looked "great" and "perfect"!
The heart rate was 180 bpm, up from 127 bpm ten days ago. She said that is fine for this stage.
She said I could go off the E2/P4 so I'm going to talk to my RE about weaning off (she said they should handle it).
I scheduled an appt. for an 11 1/2 week NT scan - that is a really long time to wait for an u/s - wow!
She also said the m/c rate is less than 5% at this point - I know stats aren't everything, but it was still comforting to hear.

Yay! Glad everything went well. And as a possible positive - I had my first NT Scan at just over 11 weeks but it was too early for them to get really clear measurements so they had me come back the next week. My insurance covers it so I was just like "yay another u/s!" So don't panic if they ask you to come back just be excited about another peek at your LO!
