Just finished the amnio. Definitely not the most pleasant way to spend a Friday morning. Procedure itself went well, couldn't really see the sex, although the doc and sonographer said they'd put their money on girl. We should hopefully get results Monday or Tuesday.
I have a regular check up at 2:15 central time today. I am almost 15 weeks. I know they will listen for the heartbeat on the doppler, but I am hoping that since my mom is going with me she can talk the doctor into pulling in the bedside ultrasound and see if we can get a peek at the sex. We will see!
I always tend to get a little nervous the day of my appointments, just that something could go wrong. So T&P appreciated, and that time would fly between now and when we get to hear the heartbeat.
Had a checkup this morning and blood drawn for harmony test. Heartbeat was good and dr said I can have lunch meat, sushi, diet soda, coffee, and soft cheese. He said it's ok to fly until the last month and ok to paint in a ventilated room. When I asked about alcohol he said I can tell you that my wide drank a bit.
Not technically an appt but dr called saying my harmony results are fine! I'm so, so relieved! My initial bloodwork came back with an elevated risk of downs and I was nervous about an amnio because of my blood clot. Now I can just focus on that. Great news for a Friday!
we had a regular appt today and because it's twins we get an ultrasound every appointment even though they are usually quick. He had a hard time naming baby A and baby B because they were "neck and neck" for first haha. Sibling competition already They have already moved so much since our gender scan last sat!
Had my appt this morning. Baby was being a wild child.. All over the place. Lost 2 more pounds but no dehydration so I didn't have to get admitted.. Woohoo!!!! Cervical length holding steady at 4.12cm.. Great news as well. And I got my first 17p shot today.. And let me just say my behind was burning. But all in all.. Everything went well. First good appointment I've had in awhile.

So I kept the glucose drink down (thanks to Zofran) and have about 20 minutes left before the bloodwork.
Here's a hint for you ladies-the orange glucose water stuff is nasty. If you have a.choice, go for lemon lime! Tastes like flat Sprite.
