Saw Dr. B today

I went back to see my OB/GYN (Dr. B) today for the last time. Basically it was just a pelvic exam but then he used the Doppler and heard the baby's heartbeat again! We got our first measurement of the hb today, and it was 163! Dr. B said that anything above a 120 is good. So, that is great! The visit took a long time, but it was mostly just waiting. I had a list of questions to ask, but decided to hold most of them for when we meet with our OB that will be with us through the pregnancy. Dr. B asked if I knew any of the other doctors in his practice and I said no, but my brother and SIL had a baby with Dr. A a couple of years ago and they loved her. He said that everyone loves Dr. A so he was going to request that she be my OB. So, that's great! I haven't met her yet but hope that I will like her. We have an appointment to see her the first week of January.

I talked to Dr. B about the NT scan, which is where they can test for some chromosomal deficiencies. He said that he recommends it for all patients that are 35 or over, and that normally based on my age he wouldn't say that I need it, but he said that if I want to do it, it would be good for peace of mind. So, his office is supposed to call me tomorrow to try to schedule it. I will ask if it is covered by my insurance and as long as it is, we'll do it. It will be a good chance to get another u/s anyway, since it doesn't sound like we'd have another one until 18-20 weeks.

Well, overall, it was a great visit I can't wait to meet Dr. A in January!
