1st OB Appt.

We had our  appointment today! Baby measured right on point. 9 weeks, 2 days!  We got to watch baby wiggle all over so that was pretty amazing! It's crazy what 1 week will do at this stage of development!  

So the plan:

Starting at 14 weeks (which will be our next appointment), we will go in every 2 weeks for a cervical length check. I will also be doing progesterone injections. Dr. Miser actually wants to try and get around doing a cerclage...which is why we will be so heavily monitored. She said the reason is because of all the damage my cervix/uterus sustained and how close these babies are. Soooo, we'll see what happens. If my cervical length starts to shorten, we'll revisit a cerclage.

Also, since these babies are so close together, Dr. Miser is thinking a repeat C section is going to be the way to go, again, due to the damage to mycervix and how short of time has passed between babies. I really don't mind a repeat.  It is major abdominal surgery, but it's not too bad. It's totally doable. And now I know what it entails so it's really not that big a deal.

So that's that. I posted a 9 week belly pic Since the last pic was my 8 week one.

I go in for all the blood work sometime this week. So crazy that this is actually happening. Eek!
