We had our weekly appointment today and everything was great. Both Mark and I are always on the verge of a panic attack as our "appointment day" gets closer... we feel so blessed that we have been able to breath a sigh of relief so far. Since it was our 16 week appointment, the ultrasound was a bit more in-depth which was very fun. Baby W was so active. He/She is actually measuring a week ahead- our doctor said that this is completely normal and that we are probably just going to have a big baby!
My first progesterone shot was today- piece of cake. 1 down, 19 more to go. Dr. Grant totally has my number. When I asked him if I should stop my oral progesterone since we are now taking the shot, he said "I know you and I know that you would probably feel more at ease if you are on both so go ahead and keep taking both." Man, do you think my anxiety is evident, ha!
Mark and I have decided to attempt to not find out the sex of our baby. This was a big step for us... this is maybe the first thing we have both done to treat this pregnancy as if it is a normal, carefree, pregnancy. We are constantly analyzing everything we do, everything we talk about, everything we plan because we both know how fragile things are. BUT we both thought that it would be really fun to not know the sex of the baby until we deliver. Obviously with weekly ultrasounds, this is truly a test of will power. However, we passed it with flying colors today and it really wasn't that hard. We'll see if we can keep resisting the temptation!
