FIRST DOCTORS APPOINTMENT!!
July 29th, 2011 9:20 am
Nathan and I could hardly sleep, the excitement and questions and unknowns going through our heads with our appointment being the next morning. We arrived to our appointment at Valley OB/GYN on time but still had to wait for 30 minutes or so. Even that was fun because we got to watch all these women and their cute prego bellies come in and out, Dad's following them with their ultrasound pictures trailing behind them, big smiles on all of our faces :) Its true! We're going to be a Mommy and Daddy!
Nathan thinks we are going to have twins. Are they in my family....nope, but we'll see if that's what Heavenly Father has in mind for us...It would be totally exciting if we were! Heck, we're just excited to be having our very own baby!! We went in today hoping to be able to hear the baby's little heart beat but I am 9 weeks and 4 days pregnant...just a tiny bit too early :( We were totally bummed...but Sara said it best "That's alright, that'll make it 10 times more exciting next time!" and she's right. We met with N.P. Christy Jorgensen who was sweet and made me feel nice and comfortable. I think I'm going to like this office very much. I was referred to Valley OB/GYN by many people all of whom spoken extremely high of all the Doctors and the practice itself. So far I am pleased. Our next appointment on August 23rd at 4pm with M.D. Jeffrey C. Broberg. (*Valley OB/GYN is a group practice of 7 doctors and 3 nurse practitioners. Each appointment will be with another dr. so that's we'll get the chance to meet all of them hopefully. Because whoever is on call on the Big Day will be the one delivering our sweet little one)
Our baby is about the size of a grape now, its limbs are fully formed and even its eyes, though they are still covered with tissue. Everything is nearly in place and there now it's time to become more defined and perfect! So here's me, feeling tired but not too sick (Thank Goodness!) and feeling fat even though I shouldn't...not tons of weight gain just feeling full and wide and .... yea, not so fun feelings....
"Good bye body, Hello" new world of adventures for my body, me and our family!!
**9 Weeks and 4 days**
