Well first i have to say that I LOVE my new office!!! I only saw the NP but she was fabulos and the whole staff was friendly and upbeat. She went through all of my questions throughly although I didnt like the answers always like you can do nothing about acne, I cant ride my bike anymore and no swimming in a lake because of the bacteria. So then she went to listen to the heartbeat and I said to her oh yeah and the last place told me possibly twins and she was shocked they didnt find out for me. Anyway, She also said my uterus was awfully high but only mainly on one side. She tried and tried to find the heartbeat but couldnt. I started shaking I was so scared because I havent been able to hear it on my doppler lately either. Anyway she said she wanted to get me un for an ultrasound and to have a seat in the waiting room. Almost two hours later they called me in. It was so worth the wait!!!! I got to see my little thumper and he is just beautiful!! I am measuring 13w2d so ahead of the game. The best part was that they had the 4d ultrasound also so they pushed a button and wow what a difference. Get this the baby had a little bit of hair can you believe it? I wish I had a scanner to show you guys honestly it was amazing!! Also down under looks like boy parts but she wouldnt confirm and said she would know for sure at my 20 week appt.
The only bad part was that the high uterus they are feeling is not another baby but a fibroid. They said they were just going to keep a close eye on it. The upside of that is more ulrasounds hehe. They were so nice and friendly and really spent a lot of time with me. I am so relieved and glad I switched offices!!! Thanks for listening and being there as always!!

I was so happy to see a smiley face next to your post title for once! Congrats on finally going to a good dr's office and getting a great appt! Whew...just one baby in there, that's a relief I'm sure! I don't know much about fibroids but if your dr didn't seem worried about it then I'm sure there's no reason for you to. Can't wait to hear if they're right about the boy parts!!! :)
