Heartbeat of 175 and on track.

Such relief. The ultrasound went awesome today. On track and heartbeat of 175. Had blood drawn for the Maternit21 test. We will know in about 10 days if we have low risk of trisomy and if we are having a boy or a girl. So excited. Bri and I think boy but just want a healthy baby. 

Got my step down plan for prednisone / estradial / progesterone. 

Stop estradiol at 12 weeks

PROGESTERONE
12 weeks - 400 at night
Keep shots at same level
13 weeks - no suppositories if okay 
14 weeks - no injections if okay

If spotting or cramping take 200 suppository. 

PREDNISONE - 
12 weeks reduce to 5mg a day
13 weeks reduce to 2.5mg a day
14 weeks skip every other day
15 weeks off


My a1c was 7.2 which is good but I need to do more sticks and keep a log. She increased my insulin to get it lower. 

It's a great day.
