If you are friends with me on Facebook, you have undoubtedly seen/read my status messages about the INSANE nausea that this little "Monster" has been giving me. (Junior was a Monkey when he started moving, right now... this one is just Monster!) After a stint in the ER and a repeat of the day leading up to the ER stint, I finally got in to see a doctor in the Family Practice clinic at the Naval Hosptial here.
I was surprised that despite the fact that when your going through infertillity and you concieve, you can pin-point conception but they wanted to do an ultrasound to "date" the pregnancy. Hmm lets see, a chance to "see" the baby. Mmm yep, I'll take it! Who am I to argue?! LOL.
Monster was very uncooperative (no shocker there). He/She refused to move so that we could get an accurate measurement. The measurement they did get was with in 7 days of where I should be, so the doctor took it. Being so still allowed the doctor to get a good heartbeat measurement (149bpm) and as soon as she was done with that, Monster started flipping all over. All while avoiding being able to measured accurately! It was nice to be able to see the little Monster and know that despite the lack of mom's ability to keep much of anything down some days (or stomach things the other days) that He/She is still growing and forming the way it should!
