Went for my ultrasound yesterday. Chance is still measuring big. His HR was 170. Length was 21.89 mm.
I still feel really good. No morning sickness. Sometimes I wake up really tired. Still on bed rest. At least for another week. My RE said she would release me to by regular OB if he can get me in next week, if not, she wants to see me at least another week. So I will go back Monday if I haven't heard from my OB. Hopefully I can stop taking the PIO shots and stop wearing the estrogen patches. The RE says the medications stay in the body absorbing for another 6 weeks after they are stopped.
My MIL went with me to the appointment. She got to see her first and only grandson live on the ultrasound machine. I think she may have cried a little. I did. Please don't take my last post about me MIL wrong; I have the most amazing MIL on the planet. I wish everyone could have a MIL like mine. Not sure what the DH would say about my mother. LOL If it weren't for my MIL, we wouldn't be on this journey at all. She has encouraged me and checked on me everyday since I've been on bed rest. I can't say enough wonderful things about her. She is getting new hearing aids, so hopefully that will help her hearing. Shooting a gun without hearing protection will ruin your hearing. ALWAYS wear hearing protection (PSA over). She just had her 82nd birthday on the 3rd of Nov. Fabulous!
I am anxious to see how she is around Chance. Raising her son in a different state while her granddaughters were growing up, she has never really been around babies, except her own. It will be a huge adjustment for all of us when he arrives. I'm also anxious to see how the animals do when he arrives.
I found an antique crib online last night for $40 (couldn't sleep). I offered her $25 and she accepted. However, I'm trying to get more information on it. If it has the right dimensions, I will bring it home and refurbish it. If we don't use it, I can always sell it.
