perinatology is a scary word

this week has been quite the roller coaster of a week. We went to the dr 2 weeks ago to find out the gender of the baby (yes we went to a 4d ultrasound clinic to find out before the dr's office visit)it is 100% a girl! they ended up doing duel ultrasounds one on the tummy and an internal one. after meeting with the Dr he said I needed to come back the following week for another ultrasound because i was on the high end of having a cervix that was short. he said not to worry that it was just a precaution. thursday came around i went back to the dr and the same results came back that i was at the high end, i got the impression from the tech that everything was fine, that i'd just go on normally and that they would just have to check from time to time because it hadn't gotten shorter- well...apparently the dr had different plans, i got a call on friday while at work saying i needed to call the dr's office as soon as possible. I called and they are now sending me to a "high risk" pregnancy dr on tuesday because they are the only ones that can get me in before the end of august. so from being in a normal pregnancy to a questionable to a good to now "high risk" this has been quite the crazy week! just pray i don't have to go on bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy- because then i don't get maternity leave! lots of anxiety from now until tuesday!

When I saw your facebook post about going to the perinatologist I had to look up the word. I hope that everthing with your little bun is ok! Good luck hun!
