first prenatal exam


We had our first prenatal appointment today. I was nervous about seeing a different doctor than Dr. Crittenden. I loved her so much that I felt like I was betraying her. After getting to the new office, I felt relief. It is a very nice office and its connected to the hospital that I will be delivering at. The hospital is very nice and they offer a lot for expectant moms. They called me in the room right on time, I peed for them and then they had me sit there for almost 30 minutes waiting for the dr. to come talk to me. I was so bored and I wasnt feeling well. She finally came in and talked to me about my pregnancy. I let her know about the spotting I have experienced previously and she took me to get an ultra sound. I went to get Eloy so he could see the baby in there also. Well, everything looked great and the baby is actually one week younger than I thought which is 7 weeks pregnant today. I saw its little heart beat also. It was such an amazing feeling to see this little bean inside of me. It is so small but so precious already. The dr. told me that I have a threatened miscarriage due to the spotting which is actually caused by some blood trapped between my uterus and the placenta. She said the chances of miscarrying are very slim to none and that everything will more than likely be ok.
After we left, we went to eat at Ihop. I was so sick by the time we got there that I threw up and didn't want to eat my meal. I ate a little and Eloy took care of the rest. We picked up Emily, shared the news, and now I am home. I just got the little booger to take a nap and Im thinking I am about to do the same. Pregnancy sure does make you tired.
