The Good news

I'm pleased to report that the OB appointment went great!  On the u/s we could see that we have 1 little baby in there with a strong heartbeat of 128 and measuring in at 7 mm.  At this point, the baby will grow 1 mm per day, so by next week when I grow back, it will double in length!

Dr. H seemed very pleased with all of this, and based on the good blood work and u/s results, said there's only about a 5% chance of failure at this point which will drop into the low single digits next week!  He said this looks to be a normal, low-risk pregnancy, so I can just choose any doctor.  Unfortunately, he didn't have any direct suggestions toward who this should be.  After the visit next week, I'll be transferred to a regular OB's care.  I have to admit I am sad to leave the comfort and efficiency of Dr. H's office.

Well, we walked out feeling great and decided to tell Audrey who is super excited!  We've sworn her to secrecy for at least a few weeks, but we'll see how that goes...
