12 Week Appointment

We went in yesterday afternoon for our 12 week checkup. Dr. Ruk ran into the room and said, "Let's listen to the heartbeat and then I've got to go deliver a baby!" So that's what we did. It took a little while to find it and I don't think I breathed the whole time he was rolling around on my tummy, but when he did it was so neat. Really fast "swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh." And then he ran to deliver a baby and met us back in his office about 30 min later. All in a day's work I guess.

We also went over insurance and I had some blood drawn for the usual tests. Luckily no fainting on either of our parts. :-) We've really lucked out with my insurance as the usual 20 minute meeting was reduced to the insurance coordinator telling us "Covered 100%, any questions?" One less thing to stress about which is good. With that in mind and after talking to some girls up here at work who had another sonogram done at 13 weeks for something called a Nuchal translucency screening (NTS), I called Dr. Ruk today and scheduled an appointment to have that done. So we go in on Monday to, as Scott says, "See the schmidge on TV!!" I can't wait!
