Got another scan . . .

So, as you can read in my last post, Dr. Not So Nice really pissed me off. I started stressing more and more after Friday's scan, and especially when the Dartmouth nurse wanted us to drive up there for the next scan.

I sent my primary RE an email Saturday morning expressing my concerns and unhappiness. He is the Top Dog RE at the clinic, so I figured why not start with him? Well, he emailed me back at 9:45 am from his vacation on Florida, and arranged for me to go back today and get better taken care of! Have I ever told any of you that I think he is great? He has the reputation of not being so caring, "bad bedside manner" some say. Its not that, he's just a little nerdy and doesn't converse easily. For some reason, I can get him going, which makes him remember me. I ask lots of questions with serious medical terms, then make a joke. That works for me!

Back to the scan . . . so we went back today and Dr. Not So Nice was not there, which I knew from Dr. Nerdy. Dr. New Guy was on, and his reputation hasn't been so great either, but I have to say he was FABULOUS. He knew the whole story, as my RE (his boss) sent him an email from vacation too, to take special care with measurements, take your time, answer our questions, and give us a picture.

So now we are proud owners of a sonogram picture of Little Blob. Measures at 5w5d which is great he said, although I am 5w6d. He explained since the measurements are so small, they can be off as much as 6-7 days! No heartbeat yet, but that is not expected (but secretly hoped for) for development at this stage. I will probably go back on 1/8 for the last scan (would be 7w0d then), and we pray there is a heartbeat, so we can be released to my Gyn, and pretend we are normal. Uh, yeah, right!
