A question for you

Just a quick hey. Hey.

Feeling ok and just very hopeful that all will continue to go well with our superbaby. God how I hope...

Change of plans for my ultrasound on the 12th. Super S and I will be traveling on the 10th or 11th for about 10 days.

So here's a survey for you....

Should I go for an ultrasound before we leave or wait it out until we return? I am not sure, I'm leaning towards waiting, but at the same time kind of want to go before hand to confirm all is ok. Give me your opinion guys.

  1. It depends on your level of anxiety. I wanted to have as many checks as possible. I'm sure Superbaby is doing well. If it will make your mind easier during travel, go for the check. If you think it will just ramp up your anxiety, then wait until you get back. Also, ask your doctor - he might have an opinion too.

  2. No good advice on the u/s.

    I'm just catching up on your last post and am so sorry for your loss. Holding you in thought and prayer as you grieve one baby while celebrating another. So bittersweet. The way you wrote about the baby being absorbed made me think that he/she will always be with you now... Many hugs my dear.

  3. If it were me, I would want to go in before to confirm everything is OK. I agree that it depends on your level of anxiety though.... Hope you are going away for fun!!

  5. I would definitely do a hearbeat check, but not necessarily an ultrasound. I'm so sorry you lost one of your twins. It's natural that you would want extra assurance that the other one is still going strong.

  6. I think it I'd want to peace of mind before traveling, but that's just me. Maybe just a heartbeat check? Do you have a doppler or know somewhere you could rent one? You could take it along. Those are my thoughts.

  7. I think I would want some sort of reassurance that all is well... be that an ultrasound or a heartbeat check. Hang in there... and I hope you are able to enjoy your trip.

  9. I've been following your blog for some time and I just wanted to say I'm so sorry that you lost one of your babies. I'm like the others who commented -- I'd want to know everything was OK before going out of town. Most likely everything is in fact OK, so you'll leave having piece of mind.

    I always took as many opportunities as possible to see the baby!

  11. Do an ultrasound any time you have a chance. They are very reassuring!

  12. I am with the others - I would go for the ultrasound or have them check the heartbeat with the doppler. I couldn't wait.
    I don't blame you for being worried esp after losing one of your twins.
    I hope you get great news from the doc and you have a great vacation.

  13. Being the anxious person that I am, I'd go before :)
    I'm so glad to hear you're doing ok, I hope you're going away for something fun and relaxing.

    Lots of love!

  14. It depends on whether you feel you can´t wait or not. If you are worried, just ask for earlier appointment, I´m sure your doctor understands. I have called and gotten extra apointments and I felt so much better afterwards just knowing that everything was ok. The paranoia that I am would definetly go before, if it was possible.

  15. Oh sweetie, I definitely will have one earlier! But if you feel ok with waiting than it's a great sign, it's just me being a bit anxious!

  16. Hi sweetie, I would definitely get it done before. I just read the previous post and I hope you are OK. I'm sorry you lost the other precious baby but am so grateful that this one is thriving. If you think you're going to worry the whole time you're travelling please get checked before you go.
    Take care and (((HUGS)))

  17. I am a big fan of peace of mind, so I would see if I could get a scan before leaving--but that is JUST me. I am sorry you are dealing with this worry--sending you loads of peaceful thoughts!

  18. If it were me I'd go before, simply for the peace of mind while traveling!! Let us know what you decide!! Thinking of you!

  19. I'd definitely go before. AND after.

    This whole thing is so stressful. Thinking of you and Superbaby.

  20. I would go before the trip so you can relax and not stress. Are you going somewhere wild and crazy? ;)

  21. I would definitely go beforehand as I am a bit of a worrying and would be alot more relaxed on the trip. It depends how you think you will go if you get a twinge or anything while you are away.

    Have a fabulous trip - somewhere good?

  22. if it were me, i would have to go before the trip. if i didn't, i wouldn't be able to get it off my mind the entire time i was gone. that's just me, though! whatever decision you make will be the right one for you. :)

  23. I would go before the trip. I'm a control freak and will say that the one good thing about being high-risk is an ultrasound at every appointment. I need to know what's happening all.the.time.

    Good luck with whatever decision you make, but personally, I would have an u/s before. You might also find that you can relax and enjoy your trip since you know that everything is going well.
