    I have an appointment at 3:00 today, and to be honest, I don't think it is necessary at all. 

    My first 'appointment' was a few weeks ago, and from what I've figured, that was supposed to be with the NP to go over history, questions, etc.  However, the NP was on vacation so I met with the Dr., and he did all of that and gave me an exam.  Then they scheduled today's appointment.

    Then last Friday, I had some brown discharge so I went in for an US, met with the Dr., AGAIN.  Everything looked great so I asked the nurse if today's appointment was necessary and she said better safe than sorry.

    I think this would have been scheduled as my first time being seen my the Dr - except I've already seen him.  Twice now.  I feel like I'm an annoying patient.  What could we possibly be doing today?

    I am definitely an annoying patient! I had my first appt with my doctor two weeks ago at 9w5d and he did not feel comfortable trying for the hb with the doppler so early so he is letting me come back today instead of waiting an entire month. I know he thinks I am nuts, but I discovered my MMC around this time, so I feel like I always hold my breath until that first doppler appointment.

    I am going in at 2:20EST and hoping for a nice, strong hb so that I can enjoy my holiday weekend! I am 11w5d today.

    No real appointment today, but I have to go give blood.  And it has to be fasting, because they apparently do an early gestational diabetes test now.  But I have to go to work for an hour first (I'm a nanny and have to take the girls to school) so for now I am a miserable pregnant woman who just wants her tea, and some food.  2 more hours and I'll be driving to the doctor!

    @lest12 - keep the appointment :) 

    I have an appointment today at 2:30pm (EST). It was scheduled yesterday after having brown spotting Saturday - yesterday. I called to see if it was anything to worry about and they said that I can come in for an us to ease my mind. I'm definitely feeling like I belong in the "annoying patient" club but since it was a rough go from the start, I'll take the appointment to ease my mind. I haven't had the brown spotting since yesterday afternoon so that's good but I'm still nervous.

    @lest12 -  they can use the doppler!  :)   I'd just try and enjoy it - they are the ones that scheduled it, and they probably have a policy about having certain appointments.

    I have my 12 week appointment at 10:30 ct, I really hope Dr. can find the heartbeat cause I have been stressing out not able to find it on my doppler. My Pgal brain is freaking out about another mmc. Plus I think I made a mistake mailing out our announcements yesterday, I wanted people to have them before Thanksgiving but now I have a huge feeling of dread that something will go wrong today and then we will have so many people to un-tell.

    I had an appointment late yesterday and we heard both babies' heartbeats. Unfortunately my OB is out until March and the doctor I had was awful. He was rude and just didn't have the bedside manner you would expect someone in his position to have. Especially after going through IF/IVF, I am so used to the kind doctors and nurses I dealt with at the RE office. Anyway at least babies are healthy! Good luck to those with appointments today!

    My appointment today is for NT and 12 week check up. I am nervous but excited and pray this puts me in the safe zone and I can stop worrying so much. If everything is good, I'm ordering our holiday cards today. Appt- 3:30 PST.

     

    Good luck to all!

    I just started getting a ton of results back from my blood draw this morning, and everything looks good.  No early gestational diabetes for this girl.  I've eaten two meals already (after fasting from last night until 10:30 blood draw this morning),and I still feel so crappy!  Don't they know making a pregnant woman fast is inhumane??

    Wow I am so happy right now!! I had my 10 week appointment today. I was soo nervous just because I've had NO confirmation or indication that everything is ok or that I'm even pregnant, except for a positive hpt.

    My appt started out with questions with the nurse. She checked my weight and checked my BP. She said my bp was high and I said probably because I am so nervous. She got me into a gown and I stripped down. My OB came in and we chatted a bit- she was pretty outraged for me when I told her about how they treated me at that first dating u/s. She put the doppler on and RIGHT AWAY she could hear the heartbeat! She called it a "show pony" because of how fast she could find it. It apparently swam around a lot so it was hard to keep the hb going, but she found it long enough to figure out it's about 164 bpm! (It was old school and didn't automatically give the reading). I almost cried I was so happy.

    Then she did the pap. That was shitty. I forget what she called it, but my cervix is apparently really sensitive and all she did was touch it and it started bleeding. She said I'll experience some spotting but it's long and closed so it's all good.

    I'm just so happy I finally got some good news. She was so reassuring and I feel so happy.
    Yay!! Happy dance for you!

    I had an appointment today. First thing in the morning. My CNM went over my blood work, asked me some questions about family health history, got a pap smear, and had an ultrasound to see LO. They changed my due date.. again. 

    I have my next 2 appointments scheduled. If all goes as planned, I'll be finding out the gender of LO on Jan 8th.

    I had an ultra sound today. For some reason I thought it would make me feel better. But I still feel scared and I guess sort of depressed. I've had alot of miscarriages but I also have alot of kids lol, my last one ended at 16wks back in June. Guess I'm just afraid of it happening again.

    Hang in there... fwiw, sometimes I wonder if there will ever be 'nothing' to be scared about.
