Hey Jenna
What a great sound. I am so pleased you HEARD the h/b - I know my OB doesn't try till 11 weeks.

About the nuchal translucency u/s... I am suprised the NP scheduled it for 15 weeks. I asked for a later date for mine but the practice was quite clear that it must be done before 14 weeks for results to be valid. I checked online and all the articles confirmed what they said, eg:

"The screening must be done when you're between 11 and 14 weeks pregnant. (The last day you can have it done is the day you turn 13 weeks and 6 days pregnant."

If it really has been scheduled for 15 weeks, you might want to confirm that its okay.

Sorry I'm so slow, but... YAY!

I LOVE the sound of a healthy hb! And you know they say you have a healthy bean once you confirm a healthy hb -- I think the risk of m/c goes down below 10%.

I know the next few weeks are kind of a long wait since you can't feel the baby yet. But I'm hoping they'll go by quickly. I'll be rootin' for perfect nucheal and AFP results when the time comes so you can skip the amnio... and the worry!

Congrats on that hb, Jenna. Keep us updated on how you're doing.

Hugs,

OK, the NP must have been confused b/c my ob called me today to tell me congrats and noted that I wasn't coming in again until 15 weeks.
