Well, there really isn't a lot to update at all. I get there at 8, get called back at 8:15, pee in a cup, they take my blood pressure and weight, then I get sent to the exam room. It was warm in there and the heater on the table was turned on, so I kinda dozed off while I was waiting for my doctor. I believe that it was about 8:40 when she got in there, so yay for a 15 min nap!
She asked me how I was feeling and how everything was progressing. I said that I feel good and I guess everything is progressing normally. She whipped out the doppler and squirted my tummy with goo. I heard static, digestion sounds, that scratchy sound it makes when there isn't enough good, and more static. She couldn't find the heartbeat, but she wasn't concerned because I'm still pretty early for an external doppler, and my ute is slightly tilted.
She said since everything looked good at the ultrasound and that baby was measuring ahead, she will just see me in 4 weeks for my next appointment and we will try again then. I did have a cyst on my right ovary, but she said that is common as well, but we will just keep an eye on it at the next u/s.
So, yay for uneventful appointments. Boo for not hearing the heartbeat.
Also, she has changed my due date to September 29, but I'm keeping it as Oct. 3 for now since the date will probably change 20 times, and baby will come when s/he wants.
Keep Jonathan and I in your thoughts. Our Half Marathon is in 11 days. I'm ready, but I don't think he is (mentally at least). I want us to go up to the Silver Comet Trail on Saturday to get an easy 10 mile run in, but I don't think he is too excited about that.
