I scheduled our first official appointment...it's not until JAN 7!!! I really don't know how I'm going to wait that long! She said they normally see people between 7 & 8 weeks...I will be 8w2d. I hate waiting!!
I felt the SAME way and I'm sure all the other girls here feel that way too. I occupied myself with the book Baby Bargains and all my pregnancy books. Of course work and bumping keeps me busy too.
I felt the same way when I made my first appointment. It will be on Dec. 21 and I will be 8w2d then. I guess it is normal but it is really hard to wait.
When I was there yesterday for b/w I asked the nurse if all pg women are as paranoid as I am. She said it's totally normal because there's no way to actually see or feel what's going on inside you. She also said I wasn't the most paranoid, by far, so that made me feel better
I know how you feel. I feel like the wait is taking forever. I'll be about 8w2d at my first appt, and it's still 18 days away. I've called the Dr. 3 times already and I have a feeling that they'll be sick of me well before I deliver.
I'm right there with you. I called and they can't get me in for my 1st appointment until Jan.7th as well. I was hoping for some type of outside confirmation besides a HPT before we tell our family. I keep going back and forth on when to tell them.
we're all in that boat at some point haha. i had to wait and it felt like forever....felt so good after i left there and i didn't even have an ultrasound. i was just happy to have the first appointment done.....just meant i was that much farther along i guess......
My doctor is going to see me at about 8.5 weeks as well. good to know that's pretty normal. The wait is brutal. I want to tell a few family members but I also wanted to wait till after the first appointment, just want to know everything is ok.
The wait blows. My 1st appt is Dec 28th and I'll be 9w4d along. Only 2 1/2 more weeks of waiting. I don't think I'll make it either! Hoping the holidays make the time go faster!

Me too! Except I'll be 9w1 day along I think. I think for the first time in my life I can't wait until Christmas is over because I actually have soemthing more exciting afterwards!

I felt the same way and I only had to wait about 2 weeks you just want to get there and make sure there is really a baby and everything looks healthy...it is nerve racking.
I feel the same way(my appt is scheduled for January 6th). I have been trying to keep myself distracted but it is hard, especially when I read these boards all day.
Oh, BTW CityGirl- I know you said you're on the UWS. I work up there and just found a prenatal yoga class on 72nd & B'dway.
It's $185 for 8 weekly classes... I think that's kinda expensive but I am gonna look around.
Let me know if you find any good prenatal in general classes on the UWS. I know the 96th Street Y has some.
Is that at the Prenatal Yoga Center? That's the only one I've heard of up here, but I'm definitely going to look! I don't belong to a gym right now, so I might not mind spending the money. I've been looking for a new workout routine...

Waiting is the worst - and sorry to tell you but after that appointment - waiting 4 weeks until your next appointment is no joyride!!!!
Yeah really- they didn't even DO anything at my first (8 week) appointment... just asked me questions.
I don't have my first u/s until 13 weeks (right before xmas) so I'm DYING over here to get into that office!!!
Me too! Except I'll be 9w1 day along I think. I think for the first time in my life I can't wait until Christmas is over because I actually have soemthing more exciting afterwards!
