Finally home after my appointment. Its 2pm and my appointment was at 10:30 I had to wait a whole half an hour to see him
First the good stuff...
Uterus is measuring 19 weeks he said that's perfect. Bubs heart rate was good on the lower side of things but I can't remember exactly what he said. It was really funny because he/she kicked at the doppler and he was like wow did you feel that i was like of yeah its a strong one in there...

Then I told him what was going on so he checked my BP and heart. He said my BP was up and my heart was slightly racing (though it didn't feel it to me). He checked m urine and it was clear of any protein but my iron was low or something so that's goodish. Then he sent me down stairs to have an ECG done on my heart (Electrocardiography). It came back okayish but nothing he was concerned about. I pointed out that I wasn't having one of my heart racing episodes so wouldn't it be normal even if there was something up and he said well good point lol. But he seemed to think there might be an underlying cause not my heart for say but something making it race. So then he sent me over for a full blood work including testing for Toxemia (Pre-eclampsia) and my wonderful (NOT SO MUCH) Glucose test... That took an hour and then they took like 4 viles of blood Anyway I'm not complaining at least he took me seriously and decided to check it all out. Should have my results tomorrow hopefully...

Oh and on a side note I booked my ultrasound but its not till the 11th of February I'll be like a day of 21 weeks But they only have one lady who does the 20 week scans and shes only in on one day a week so I really had no choice.... Anyway thats my update...

Emma, I'm glad everything looks okay. Can I ask why you never really post in any other threads here? We would all be very happy to be excited for you but it's hard when we know nothing about you! Maybe you could join in on our QOTD/QOTW threads, belly pic weekly thread, etc more so we could feel like we know you a little better!

Sorry, I do when I can, I post in my DDC, PR, TM&MTB, MOG, MOB, Love & Sex, Heated debates sometimes I sort of go a little MIA from some of the boards I post on.
I'll try harder...

Thanks.

Goodness, you are one busy woman posting on all these boards! I can barely manage this one and our DDC!

Anywho, I'm glad the doc did all those tests. Hopefully you get some answers out of them. And Feb 11th, doesn't that mean a nice Valentines surprise??
