I just got back from my first OB appointment and man was that alot of information to digest! DH and I were there for 2 hours. We got to have a look at Lucky...who is measuring at 9w0d. I'm 9w1d, so he's right there. Heart rate was 183 bpm. The tech said it was a little low...but I'm not worried...my pulse is always on the lower end as well. After the u/s we met with the nurse who "interviewed" us. History etc. She was asking if we had a pedicatrician in mind...whether I wanted an epidural at delivery etc...I was like, I haven't thought that far in advance yet. I just want to make it out of the 1st trimester...then I'll start thinking about those types of things!
I am going to be considered "special care" since I'm an IVF patient. Fine by me. I'll also have to have the GD test at 16 weeks because of my current weight. I knew my BMI would call for that, so it wasn't a surprise. It was a great, informative appointment. I have another next week for my OB physical. Oi.
So without further ado...(these are pics of pics so sorry for the quality)

Okay, I am NOT a doctor, but 183 bpm is not low!!!!
Glad you had a great appointment and that things are right on track! And good luck w that GD test.... I get mine in another 4 weeks.
183 is a high heart rate. It's actually on the higher range of a good heart rate. Unless you meant to type 138, then it's still within the normal range. (120-180)I wouldn't listen to that tech!
Excellent !! That all sounds and looks Like wonderful news
I hate it when techs make judgments like that. Great pics!!
I am totally confused with the heartrate too. But otherwise, everything looks and sounds great! Yay!
Beautiful!!!
Gorgeous baby! I'm glad things are going well!
I definitely agree with what the others said about the heartrate! That's actually quite high! :)
Your little lucky is absolutely adorable!
I agree with the others. That tech didn't know what she was talking about. So glad the appointment went well!
oh wow! great pics of our little one, i'm so excited for you :)
