Getting down to the med center was hell. Parking was hell. I am by myself with DS in tow since we have no childcare. I get here and the front desk tells me because this is my first appointment that I won't get an ultrasound. I have had 2 betas and I am 7.5 weeks along...and I just drove more than an hour in traffic.
Update:I got the ultrasound! They even went ahead and gave me the orders for the nt scan so I don't have to come back before then. Yay!!!! I didn't really get to see much of the us because ds was throwing everything out of his diaper bag and playing with my underwear during the ultrasound...but there was a heart beat so that is all that matters! 152!
