when it's good to not find the HB

in Pregnant after IF

I had my next monthly OB check up today.  Uterus is way higher than I thought, but right where is should be. 

So glad I checked for HB this am before going in because my Dr. couldn't find it on the doppler (but she could hear baby moving).  I personally think she wasn't trying very hard and hoping for an excuse to take a peek! Smile  Baby looks like a baby now and we saw a nice strong HB on the u/s Big Smile  Love getting a surprise peek at baby bear!!

And my a/s is set for 12/27 at 7:30 am... oh boy!

    I admire you and the other ladies who can do this.  I do not have the will power.  Smile

    DH is really the driving force... I honestly dont' care one way or the other.  I'm having a great time "pissing" other people off who think they need to know the sex Smile

    Yay for a sneak peek! It's so nice that your Dr. decided to do that. I had always planned to be team green with my first LO, but after doing a little reading and my emotions changing through the first few months of pregnancy... it changed. One, I am OCD and can't stand not being able to be organized and plan. Second reason, I read somewhere that it helps to soothe you and bond with the baby better when you know more about the little person you have in there. I can honestly say those things have rung true for me since I found out.

    GL with the a/s!

    I agree about being better able to bond with knowing the sex--I call the little one by his name all the time now, and he feels much more real to me because I know.  But people did not know until birth for thousands of years--so there's certainly no harm in having a surprise!

    I have a TON of these in my life, lol. Including some of the nurses at my OB office!!! DH was the original driving force but the further we got into the pregnancy the more I am really happy with not knowing!  Glad you got another u/s, I love the extra time seeing LO!
