Had another sonogram today!
 

I just had my 3rd sonogram and thankfully the doctor said we are still having a girl! I havent had a sonogram for 3 and 1/2 months and Ive heard so many stories of people having been told the sex of their baby was one thing and ended up being something else so I was really worried about that, but anyways the doctor felt confident our baby was still a girl. Although the area he was pointing to in the sonogram looked like 2 testicles in my opinion and my husband thought so too so Im still a little nervous about it, lol. I have it on DVD if anyone wants to see it. I just have to figure out how to upload it onto photobucket. The doctor estimated baby Tess to currently be about 5lbs 7 oz and said Im right on track so that is good :p
One thing that sucks that Im a bit stressed about is my husbands company just got bought out by a different company and so we will have new insurance effective Dec 1st and it looks like we will have to pay our medical deductable all over again(although they are not sure how much yet) whcih I just dont understand and Im so upset about as I just got done making my last payment with my current insurance company for the deductable for this pregnancy. I cant believe that wouldnt just transfer over to the new company, after all we will not be using our current insurance company for the full pregnancy, Ive only used them for a handful of doctors visit so I guess I am stupid and dont understand how any of this insurance stuff works. Im just so upset about it though as this was not planned and we were given such short notice, his company was just bought out on Monday. My husband had no idea the company he was working for was apparently going under. Sorry I just have to vent about that. But on the brightside- at least my husband still has a job and we do have insurance! :)

Are you sure the deductible doesn't transfer over?

I'm glad everything is ok with the baby and that she's still a girl :p

I wonder how they estimate size? My doctor estimated my son to be 9 lbs and he was 6 1/2:confused:

The lady that does the billing with my doctor's office said some of it may transfer over but she also said alot of stuff that didnt make sense and didnt sound like any of it was in our favor. I just couldnt understand what she was saying, it made no sense to me and at this point I was too stressed out. But until we actually switch insurance companies and they can figure it out for sure Ive decided to try and not worry too much about it. Who knows- maybe it will work out.

are the deductible amounts the same? what sucks is you will have to pay another deductible after january right?

Ive heard they are never very accurate with that and I kind of hope he isnt with mine. He said at this point, (34 weeks) most babies are 5 lbs and that my baby looks to weight about 5 1/2 so he said that was good but in my mind Im thinking "Great! my baby is bigger than normal! EEEK Im going to have to give birth to a big baby!!!" lol

Well actually my doctor was going to possibly induce (sp?) me on the 30th of December to keep me from having to pay my deductable all over again. It wasnt for sure yet since Im still 5-6 weeks away but we were discussing it and he said it was a possibility since it really is a shame I'd have to pay my deductable all over again just because Im due the very first week in January of 08.

I worked in group health insurance for 33 years. You should not have to payt a new deductible with the new carrier. That will carry over. You may have to call or send in proof you satisfied the deductible for 2007. You will have to satisfy a new deductible for 2008. I am glad you are having a little girl!!!

Im so glad you posted! This is what me and my husband thought, I think the lady working the checkout at my doctors office must have been confused. I go in to the doctor again in 2 weeks and by this time I will have my new inusrance and they will be able to look into it furthur so I plan to really talk to them then. I dont think she knew what she was talking about today. Thanks, You made me feel better! :hug:

Yay a little girl...but boys are fun toooooooo!! I cant wait until the big day!! My first one was 8lb 4oz and my second was 8lbs 8oz so when I got pregnant with my third they told me they said she would be HUGE!! She was 6 lbs 14oz lol...she was my only girl too so a very nice suprise!!
