Pregnant after IF

First OB appt today

I was disappointed there was no ultrasound :(  But I go for my NT scan in 1.5 weeks, so I guess I can wait til then and baby will really look like a baby by that point.  They just did the routine pap and bloodwork and I go back in 4 weeks for a check up. 

I did buy the Sonoline B doppler and DH and I have been able to find the hb every time (even though it takes a few minutes!).  Makes us both smile to hear our LO!

Best news is, I get to taper off my dexamethosone and progesterone next week so DH and I will get the a-ok for some intimate time!

  • Congrats on getting off the meds, but I agree, it is so frustrating not getting to see LO when you're used to seeing every time!  GL at your NT and I love my doppler too!

  • That's great! I had the same experience just yesterday.  Now that I know where the little critter is situated, I'm thinking we will get a doppler too.  Though my OB was so sweet -- she said that if I don't get a doppler and, before the baby starts to move, I feel the need to hear it, I can always call the office and come by for a listen.  She said they do that all the time -- which I thought was just super nice.
