Bloodwork vs. Ultrasound, someone can’t read

Wow, this little snowman is full of surprises!

So, today was the first day of loads of days to look forward too, the first ultrasound. This ultrasound was very important because it would let us know how far along we actually are and how the little one is doing so far. Well, we found out and ***what*** a surprise!

Bloodwork vs. Ultrasound

If you read the last entry then you should be caught up and know that it told the doctors and lab people and nurses and then me that we were only between 4 and 7 weeks. Well, for me that just didn’t add up in my mind. There was know way in hell that could have been right, but ah well, whatever! It is what is is. On with the show!

July 24, 2018 at 9:30AM EST we got our answers!

9:15AM, May, come on down, we’re ready to tell you whats behind belly number one!

Amy our lovely funny tech person running the ultrasound was very nice and described all of what she was doing

Squirt squirt squirt goes that warm stinky stuff on your tummy
Baby is looking good
Chase him around to catch the heartbeat which reminded me of little Baby J when we wanted to hear his heart rate and find out if he’d let us see if he was a boy or girl, hahaha. The heart rate at present is 150 and sounded really good. I just love that sound!

Amy, so it looks like you are about 17 weeks pregnant!
May and Jerry, um, huh, what! Wait, what?

That’s right ladies and gentlemen, the ultrasound said we are actually sitting at 17 weeks and 2 days and ***not*** 4 to 7 like the lab people said my bloodwork said.

Who the hell read my lab work? I think they need to get back to lab school and learn to read. I mean holy hell, that’s a ***huge*** difference. 4 to 7 turns into 17, yipes!

So instead of early next year when this awesome unexpected bundle of joy will enter the world it will be around Christmas!

Merry Christmas it’s a

Psst, has anyone paid attention to some little key words I snuck in there? I bet you didn’t! Your task is to go back to the beginning and find out, better read slowly! Ha!

And ***no*** it is not twins!

See you next week!

Mommy, Baby J and Snowman!

I look forward to your comment. Please keep it respectful!
