Thanks for the replies. It always helps having that ultrasound huh? I have to "feel" my way to sanity. I'm getting pretty good at palpating though.

Is the only way to know the exact size (10+mm and such) to use an ultrasound? And if so, how much does one of those machine's cost? I only just started being able to palpate with any sort of success.
