Good news!

Good news at the OB today! My SCH has shrunk from 4 to 1.5 (I'm not 100% on the unit of measurement - cm? mm? How big is this thing??). That is great news!! Keep reabsorbing, evil clot.

And the critter looked great too, still measuring a day or two ahead, with a nice strong heartbeat. We even tried today to use the doppler, to hear and not just see the h/b, but alas, it was not to be. I have a retroverted uterus (I can't just be simple and easy, no way!) so using a doppler on my tummy will not pick up the sound yet. But it was fun to try - I felt like it would be something normal pregnant ladies do - have goo put on your tummy (not on a dildo cam covered with a condom) and rub a little transducer thingy around your tummy (rather than have said dildo shoved up your cooch and moved around to the point of pain or peeing on someone).

So they will have me come in next week for another peek (LOVE my OB!) and hopefully it will be even smaller. On the same orders - take it easy, nothing up the hoo-ha, stay hydrated, no exercise, lifting, pushing, etc.

Bloodwork tomorrow to see how this weaning from PIO and patches is going.

  1. Yay, great news on the SCH and the critter! I also have a retroverted ute, so maybe that will also score me extra u/s!

  3. That is definitely great news!!! I couldn't hear the HB on our doppler until 13 weeks and even then it was hard to find and I couldn't find it every time. Enjoy, this is going well for you!
