I have to say I think this is one of the cutest ultrasound pictures ever. This was taken 2/29/08 when we were 15 weeks, 6 days. Everything looked great HR was around 144, and the baby was moving and as you can see his/her legs were in prime kicking position. I was supposed to see the perinatologist that day as well, but do to scheduling mixup, my appointment was scheduled for a time he was not in the office, I didn't see Dr Padron. He reviewed everything the following monday and the nurse gave me a call and said that he felt everything looked great and that we would see me in 4 weeks, unless I felt that I needed to see him. I told her I felt that things were going ok and I had an appointment with my regular OB that week anyways.
I saw Dr McKernan on 3/6 (16 weeks, 5 days) and he took another quick peak at baby (the pics were not nearly as good, however we did get a good skeleton picture of his/her face). Babies HR was in the 160's and he again confirmed that things appeared to be going well and to continue with my meds. I told him that I was going to Salt Lake on the 3/13(Thanks again Mom and Dad) and asked if that was ok, he said it would be on one condition, I had to promise him that I would not get injured while I was there and that I could not fall down, I was also to make sure that everyone I was with new I was on heparin in case of an emergency. He's just like a concerned father, I love it.
So all is well on the baby front I seen Dr Padron and have my 19 week ( is it a boy or is it a girl, still torn over if I really want to know) ultrasound on 3/26 and see Dr McKernan again on 4/3 at which time I will start seeing him every other week. The baby is beginning to become quite the wiggle worm and takes after his/her father, it already doesn't want to start being productive until 11 o'clock at night. The North family knows what I am talking about!
Can't wait to see all our Utah Family and Friends in just 4 more days.
Love to all,
Kim
