Whew! Glad you're both well. Tell her it isn't funny to scare her mother like that.

susie

So glad everything is okay.

hopefulmother

I hate that you had this scare, but I'm proud that you were able to somewhat calm yourself with your mantra. And of course, VERY glad that your passenger is still growing like crazy, and even though her heartbeat was impossible to hear... it was just beating away in there, begging for a scan!

Kay/Hanazono

What a relief that everything is okay. Wow -- only 93 days to go!

Mary Ellen

I am so glad that everything is okay!

Fingers crossed for you :) X

serenity

Whew! REALLY happy to hear that all is well.

One of those days indeed.

What a wonderful mantra! I believe it does help, so keep doing it. OBs generally are not known for their skill with ultrasound, so keep this in mind if they do it again. What an awful scare! I'm so glad to hear that everything looks right on track though. What a wonderful time! Enjoy every minute! (Comfort permitting, of course).

Kath

Dear Thalia, this is so good to hear. So good! I'm sorry you had such a scare there, but at least it netted you an ultrasound... And I agree with your mantra -- you are going to have a baby. It's wonderful that your doctors are so protective of this pregnancy. It really sounds like you're in good hands.

I will go and read the material on caesareans now. Are you leaning towards one birth method, or have you not decided yet?

Good luck with the GD results!

oooooooh what a relief Thalia. That must have been the longest seven minutes plus of your life. Hidious. Your mantra sounds a good one though...tee-shirt worthy even. Hang in there...

Sheesh, I can't imagine how you must have been panicking. Thank God all is well.

Leggy

Ugh- twenty minutes or more without confirmation of a heartbeat? That's just agonizing. So glad to hear all looks good. Hope the GD resuls are negative.

akeeyu

And then you kicked the OB smartly in the shins, right? When I remember this story, I'm going to just mentally add that to the end, okay?

Jessica

ugh, what a day! I would have been INSANE.

Good luck with the GD test.

B. Mare

You would have had to scrape me up off the floor after that one- very glad to hear all is OK....!

Betty M

So glad everyone is fine. Could do with the scan machine in the swanky consulting room though not downstairs adding extra minutes of worry!

beagle

Your little girl is keeping you on your toes already!

Glad it all had a happy ending.

Monica

I'm super impressed with your ability to calm yourself. I bet you'd make a great hostage negotiator... I'm glad to see that Passenger is ok. My Critter also likes to take up all available space. I bet those two would just love a recliner in there! I for one love the sweet diabetes drink.. it that wrong?

Simone

This madness will have us all grey haired! Thank Goodness T!

Erin

Oh, scary! Thank goodness everything is OK!

Sarah

yikes! i have that same mental convo too.
dr. candour, ha!

annmarie

Oh Thalya, for a moment my heart dropped. I am soooo glad all is well.

silene

Glad all is still well in there!! Obviously kids do NOT wait until they are out to panic their parents on a regular basis...

Aurelia

The first part of your post made me feel sick for you....I've done that part and hated it, thank god for access to ultrasound!

Are your fibroids that bad that you'd need a c-section? Just because I know some women whose fibroids shrunk in the last trimester quite a lot after being problematic in the first and second. They turned out fine, so I'm crossing my fingers for you as well.

Sami

Phew - I'm glad to see that all is well with you and the passenger. I about to start advocating for routine u/s rather than that doppler crap. Seriously it'd be nice to just have them say lets take a look rather than lets try to find the heartbeat. I'm not into an anxiety producing appointment, but it sure sounds like yours was definitely anxiety producing. I'm glad to hear that all was fine in the end, but so sorry you had to live with any fear for even a moment. Hang in there and don't worry I have your mantra as well as Kath's and my own - God willing 9/28 for you, and God willing 9/30 for Kath and myself.
