I had my last PR interval today and I must say, I am not at all loving the number of mixed appointments I’ve been having lately.
On the positive side (and it is a BIG positive) I don’t have to have anymore PR interval because everything remains normal and they said if a blockage were going to develop it would have done so by now. We got the most competent ultrasound tech and as usual she was able to get us some great pictures of the baby’s face! I think I’ve finally decided to give him a womb name, Cheeks, because he looks like he’s making a pufferfish face everytime we see him! The techs/doctors who have done his ultrasounds all have made comments on how chubby they are.
Cheeks is now measuring in at a cool 4lb 1oz, up over a pound from his last ultrasound 2.5 weeks ago. Crazy! And he was actually head down today! Which makes sense given where I’ve been feeling his hiccups emanate from and the fact that I’ve been feeling things jammed under both ribs (his feet I’m assuming).
So what’s the bad news? My cervix has apparently decided now is a good time to start shortening. It has always been around 3.5cm or higher, they weren’t planning on pulling out the transvag today but the tech thought it looked short from the abdominal so she called in the doctor who took a sample for an ffn and then they pulled out Wandy and yup, it changed a few times during the ultrasound but they were getting anywhere from 2.8-3.3cm. They didn’t seem overly concerned since it’s sort of on the border of where they like to see it (3cm) but they told me to try and put my feet up as much as possible.
**The doctor just called to tell me the ffn was negative so I guess I shouldn’t be too worried.
