Ultrasound Update


We had our 10 week 2 day ultrasound today- and it was great!  My big fear going in was a missed miscarriage since I have had such light symptoms- but we got to see our little one and it's heart beating away on that screen.  The Heart Rate was 160, which from all my research (ie: google) is pretty great and right on target.  I asked how we were measuring and the tech just said right around there, so I guess that was on target too.  It was really really quick today and a bit disappointing- I liked the last tech better, she talked to us more.  Although I guess they really are not supposed to talk to us.


I have decided I am neurotic.  The only thing that flipped me out was how blurry the pics are- I googled all sorts of 10 week u/s pics and saw all these cute outlines of babies, you can see noses and feet- not ours.  But s/he is still adorable, and I am guessing that because it was abdominal and not transvag it is not as clear, not to mention the layers of blub they had to go through as well.  I also didn't like that the tech told us she had to go check with the dr.  But I am guessing that is standard b/c she said everything looks good- and there is no way (i think) that an us tech would say the word 'good' if it wasn't.  SO I am excited and finally calming down a bit about things.  Don't get me wrong- i will still be calling my dr. in a few days just to ask her to look at the u/s results, but otherwise.. life is good.

I am pissed at Target though.  They cancelled my carseat order- didn't even email me first, I found out from the Nest that these orders were cancelled.  They are not honoring the price.  I *knew* it must have been a mixup, but I have never heard of a store not honoring the price on an incident like that, and think it was pretty f'ed up for them to cancel orders without any word to customers, and that even if they were not giving the full price that was offered, they should be offering the customers who ordered it something.

Today was a great day- I hope it was for everyone else :)
