Today I finally had my first prenatal visit. Boy was that a long time coming. It's hard to see that first "positive" sign on the home pregnancy test, and then be told you have to wait weeks and weeks to actually be examined fully. I've had all kinds of friends and family asking me questions that I didn't have the answers to. Today I expected to just get to hear the heartbeat with the doppler instrument they use. Instead I got to actually see an early ultra sound taken internally. It was so cool. You not only get that first glimpse of the baby, but you can see the heart working as well. The images aren't as clear as they will be as the baby grows, but it was clear enough to be such a relief. To hear him say that the baby is the right size based on our initial due date guess, etc. is great. It was a very emotional and beautiful experience, and will hopefully get better as time progresses. I am feeling pretty good over all. More updates as I get them....
Due date: September 28......two days after George's birthday :)
Done with school in TWO WEEKS...... !!!
