I had my anatomy scan this morning and found out that I am pregnant with a healthy baby boy!

Thanks! I've never been pregnant with a boy before and with the last two being girls, I was thinking along those lines, even though I said my guess was a boy. I have no idea where to start with a name and a nursery.

I got a call Thursday from the OB about my ultrasound on Wednesday and I've been kind of nervous ever since. They said they need better images of the baby's heart so I'm being referred to the MFM for another ultrasound. I initially assumed that it was bc of the baby's positioning bc she hasn't cooperated for either anatomy scan. The more I think about it now the more I'm worried there's something wrong. I have an OB appointment this week so I plan on talking to her about it so I can be more prepared for what will happen with the MFM. My appointment with the MFM is the 17th and it feels sooooo far away. Thanks for letting me vent, ladies.

My appointment with the MFM is the 17th and it feels sooooo far away. Thanks for letting me vent, ladies. We have another appointment with our MFM on the 15th for the same reason. Its possible this little man has a faulty heart valve. But honestly, when I was at my doctor's appointment he didn't seem surprised or concerned at all that we had to go back for this reason. My H is much more worried than I am. I told him I would worry when or if there is some to be worried about. Our nurse said this is usually a precaution as I am a high risk patient. Honestly, it sounds like in your case it really is possible you need another appointment because she didn't cooperate. I would try not to stress out at this point if you can. It also sounds like some one from your OB office contacted you and not necessarily your actual OB. We were told by our tech that if the doctors are really concerned they are usually the ones to tall to us. Not the nurses or techs. So, try not to lose too much sleep about it now. Don't dr. Google. Just remember that our babies are still young and have a lot of developing left to do still. |

Thanks sarahandben108 ! I'll be thinking of you, your LO and your appointment, too! I'm trying not overthink it, and yes it was a nurse from my OBs office that I talked with. I'm trying to chalk it up to a feisty little one, but I did need to vent my worry somewhere. I think part of it is just scared of the unknown. I'm a nurse so I definitely have stayed away from Dr Google, but I do have my Mother-Infant text on standby in case there is research to be done. 😊 |

They probably need more pictures and it's easier to have the MFM do it and get exactly what they want. If there were truly a significant problem they would have had a doctor in to talk to you about options right away. They don't let things like that wait. I know how hard it is to quiet the mind, but I'm sure everything is fine. |

Pretty sure I'm last but had my A/S this morning and all is good. I'm scheduled for a fetal echo next week because of age as per my OB but the MFM doctor today said he doesn't think it's necessary.

I'm sorry about the extra stress, babydsmama and sarahandben108. I agree with kensie5226 that if there was something to be worried about at this point, the docs would have likely given you more information. Oh how I wish that the ultrasound process was done more in conjunction with the doctor, so that no one has to be kept in the dark like this! I hope time flies by until next week. |

It's crazy how "different" he is already compared to E. During my A/S with E he was doing back flips, moving all over, this one was just cuddled right up in my ribs and was so laid back.

Ha mine is opposite. With C, she wouldn't move for better shots, even when poking my belly and rolling to sides. I had to come in for a second just for a shot. This one was wiggling around so much we had to close our eyes for more just in case it wiggles and the tech caught a glimpse of the crotch area. Not going to lie.....this scares me a bit. C is crazy at times, but generally was an easy baby. Is this one going to be nutso on the outside, as a second child?! Ooy! |

He is on the go from the second that he wakes up until he crashes into bed at 8pm. BUT because of this he is the best napper/sleeper in the history of time. He naps for 3 hours at least and goes down without issue for bedtime. He was even like this as a teeny tiny baby. He was never content just cuddling he had to be walked around to explore, being held face out. |

I told my mom that if he comes to me in 15 years and tells me he is supposed to be a woman I will remind her of how adamant she was that it was a girl and she can do her "I was right" dance then, but for now... BOY! |
