The appt went really well. We feel very fortunate to have been referred to this particular OBGYN (Dr.S). He didn't sugar coat anything (complications w multiples), but at the same time made us feel secure in his abilities as a physician.
I will be having u/s's completed by a specialty clinic every 3 weeks in addition to seeing him at least every 4 weeks where he will also complete u/s's. My NT Scan is booked for the middle of next week, my detailed u/s is booked for the end of April, and I had a bunch of b/w done today and have all of my requisitions for upcoming draws.
The good news - babies are both doing well!!! It was so nice to see them. They were both sleeping so Dr. S was able to point out everything to us with no problems!
It was important to me that DH was able to see them b/c he leaves on Sunday for a 3 week shift so he won't get to see them now for at least 4 weeks. He was blown away by how much they have grown since the last u/s and it hasn't even been that long! I like knowing that he has these images of our babies to keep him company when he is away.
