Trying to Get Pregnant

1st OB Appt. Update

Well, some of you asked for an update from my 1st appointment yesterday, so here ya go... Stick out tongue

What an amazing experience. Got the full work-up - paperwork, labs, pelvic exam, and ultrasound. My doctor said my pelvic exam indicated everything was right on track and set my due date for December 14th - so I'm right around 8 weeks, about three days behind where I thought I was, but that's OK. I had an awesome, very personable ultrasound tech who said my doctor was right on track and I was measuring exactly 8 weeks and everything looked great. She took lots of pictures, including one just for my mom to go inside her Mother's Day card - that's how I'm breaking the news to my parents this weekend. She wrote on the little picture, "Must I call you Nonnie?" (Nonnie is my mom's "grandmother" name that she made up herself when my nephew was born, LOL, and I gave her a hard time for it.) So that's the one that's going in the card. And best of all, we got to hear the HB, which was 162. So, it appears I?m so far growing a strong, healthy babe and DH and I couldn?t be more thrilled.

I wanted to post an ultrasound picture, but my computer at work is acting up (network issues) and won?t let me access the pic. So hopefully later. We got some great pics and the little bean was actually moving around a little ? it looked like it was waving to us. Smile

    Yeah, she has no clue. She thinks this weekend is going to be fun because we're going on a garden tour and get to watch Brothers & Sisters together Sunday night, LOL (I'm staying through Monday). Which I'm sure it will be fun for all of those reasons. But she has no idea what's coming. And I can't believe I've kept my mouth shut about it. Stick out tongue
