I had a follow up ultrasound yesterday at MFM and it looks great. Heartbeat was 150! Last week's was 108.The corpus luteum (I think) is doing it's job, EDD is 7/25/10 according to ultrasound. According to my OPK I ovulated on or day before my birthday, wow, best birthday present I could have right now!

Thank you ladies so much for helping me get through last week after I thought the heartbeat was too low. I'm very happy to share these wonderful news with you.

@KLH81: I wen t to see MFM back in August to have genetic counseling and to meet and greet the doctor since I had a m/c and then stillbirth. My OB sent me to him again to decide if I needed Lovenox or not and what my plan would be for this pregnancy. We don't know exactly why Michaela passed so I will be monitored by MFM this time around. The only abnormality found was that there was a velamentous cord insertion of the placenta and although it is rare to have this occur in a subsequent pregnancy, we will still keep a close watch on this baby.

Excellent news! I too had my second ultrasound this week....and my due date is 7/28! I failed to ask my ob what the babies heartrates were. All she said was that they are looking good. (probably keeping the info high level since I was so nervous and by myself!) I wonder if it is notated somewhere on my pictures? I'll have to look.

Doesn't it feel awesome to have a great appointment?!?!! I hope I can keep this feeling for the next few weeks....
