Echocardiograms, part 2

Today I had an MFM appointment.  I thought we were going to get a growth estimate, but alas, no (so I am arbitrarily deeming the babies one pound each and calling that a victory).  Instead, they did the echocardiograms on both Baby C and Baby A.  And good news: both passed!  Dr. Singh said the tech got beautiful pictures and now all three babies' hearts are cleared.  Hooray for healthy babies!

The echoes took a long time, but other than that, the ultrasound was pretty short and sweet.  I must say it is a total mess in there-- body parts everywhere.  This tech was really, really good and it still took her a good ten minutes to get oriented.  Baby A and Baby B are both breech and to my left now, with their heads together like they're whispering secrets.  Baby C is way up top (against my diaphragm) and cephalic (head down).  And they all move like CRAZY.  Especially the boys this time.  Their heartrates were, in the order I saw them, C: 154, A: 176 (he was rockin' and rollin', per the tech) and B: 145.  We bugged B the least, which is probably why she stayed a little calmer, though she did try to kick off the ultrasound thingee a couple of times.

They also checked my cervix, which is still locked down at 4.6 cm.  Good job, cervix.  Fort Knox.

Dr. Haeri will be back from vacation for my next appointment, which is on July 31 at 9.  That will be a growth scan (with babies well over a pound!) and cervical check.
