2nd Ultrasound 9w3d

Today was my second ultrasound.  Paul was able to come today (very exciting).  When we were waiting in the waiting room and Paul was snooping through all the drawers and playing with the equipment.  I couldn't get him to sit in his corner and wait! AHH!


So the Dr. came into the exam room (Dr. Gaines).  He did a full body exam and then started the u/s.  The little baby only measured 8w5d.  MORE STRESS.  What the heck?  Over 1w6d, the baby only grew only 1w1d.  The doctor wasn't concerned but obviously I am.  I asked him to measure the heart rate and he said, "I don't know how to do that.  I'm the oldest Dr. here."  I was like, okay grandpa, maybe it's time to retire if you can't fulfill the proper OB exam requirements?  Ugh, anyway, he was a very nice guy, but geesh.  He also took the time to explain things to us and draw us pictures of how the baby was oriented in the u/s.  That was also nice of him.  Anyway, my next appointment won't be until next month.  Pray for healthy times!
