I had a pretty uneventful appt. today. All the OB did was check for the heartbeat on the doppler. She told me it might take awhile to find since I was only 12 weeks. Luckily, she found it pretty fast. Of course it seemed like an eternity to her. She said the heartbeat was around 155.


Instead of switching me to progesterone pills she is going to lower my prochieve dose to 4% instead of 8% until I'm 16 weeks. At which time I'll get the progesterone shot 2x's a week.


Next Wed. I have my first appt with the perinatologist. Yay! Hopefully he'll give me an ultrasound.

HB 155? Could mean that you are having a g-i-r-l!!! That is what the old wives say anyway...no real evidence but fun to think about! Congrats on an uneventful appt!

Why does 155 indicate a girl? I've never heard that old wives tale before :)

Supposedly a girls metabolism is faster than a boys so a heart rate over 140 indicates a girl and under means a boy. It isn't scientifically proven, but it is still fun to wonder!
