cherished: my scan is at the local ultrasound place, my dr is my OB but doesnt have a ultrasound machine in his office as he works at the local medical centre. Got to love small towns. I cant remember if my dr wanted to see me after my scan or not d'oh, maybe i'll ring the receptionist once i've been to my scan, i guess it wouldnt hurt to ask for another scan around 10weeks just to put my mind at ease. Goodluck to you too what does HPL mean? i've never seen that before.
