I'm Currently Feeling: | Nope.My doctor just feels around my tummy and then does an ultrasound. Takes blood pressure reading then weighs me. Then she asks me if I'm taking my vitamins and that is the end of the appointment. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | you always measure FH lying down.
but if you stand up and look at your bump in the mirror you can see where your uterus ends. |
