1st OB visit & very overwhelmed..

So had our first visit..I was already feeling nervous about going & now I'm soo overwhelmed.  We love our OB, but there was soo much info! I'm seeing a diabetic/nutritionist tomorrow (i have diabetes 2)..and then in 2 weeks (which will be week 11) ..i have 3 appointments scheduled.. one for a u/s & genetic counseling (which we've already been thru), the NT scan & then a reg ob visit.. Wow!

Saw the heartbeats..but didnt get pictures today :(  .. but funny story from our ob.. he prescribed someone crinone a few years ago & the girl took it by mouth after 4 days called him & said, "i can't stand taking this anymore like this".. HEllo??? lol

    Glad everything looked good today with the heartbeats!  Wow at all the appts coming up for you!  And a big Ick! at the thought of taking Crinone orally.  Seriously?!

    Yay for a good appt.  Try to take everything one appt/day at a time if you feel overwhelmed.  Sometimes I have a doc appt every day for a week and if I think about all of them together it can just be too much, so I always focus on just the next appt.

    It sounds like it went well, aside from being a bit overwhelming.  I scheduled 3 appts too - 1 for the "finger prick" b/w for the NT scan, one for the NT scan, and one for an appt. to meet w/ my Dr. 

    What is the genetic counselor/u/s appt. for?
