1st Official OB appointment

Well, this morning we went in for our first official OB appointment. Everything looks good with the babies!!! In fact, we got to see them wiggling around as if they were saying "what is all this ruckus? I'm trying to sleep here!" They also took some blood (which, once again, was a big pain) and some urine. I'm not sure when I'll hear the results of those tests. They aren't sure what caused the bleeding, but with the test I mention below, they might be able to tell. Maybe.

The nurse practitioner that we saw today asked us if we wanted to do this one ultrasound test (can't remember what she called it) that will provide a clearer picture of the babies and it is one check to see if the babies show signs of having Down's. We need to schedule that sometime before January 13. Of course, this test is optional, but I want to do it because it is one more chance to see the babies!

Well, that is all for today. Thank you to everyone who commented and/or added us to your prayer list. It was much appreciated!

    The test is the combined screening which includes the NT Scan (nuchal translucency ultrasound) and blood work (just a finger poke this time though) to give adjusted odds for trimsomies. I had mine done today. Earlier is better so that if they can't see everything they need to, you have time to come back later.

    Congrats on the good OB appt!!
