So far away...

 Well, good news is
the doctor's office called to schedule my
first appt. Bad news is I don't go until
March 6th and that is JUST for
paperwork...  I know I shouldn't
be bummed because that is about the
typical week marker (7.5 wks then) to
go...but it just seems SO far away!
Anyone have any advice about how to pass
the time? Lol!

Try making twins?
lol.
When I got pregnant my bff told me not to
have sex unless I wanted multiples. She
honestly thought that's how twins are
conceived!

That's so strange, but I've heard of it
before that a dr. won't see you until
you're farther along. My dr. saw me for
both babies right away, like no more than
a week after I called.

It'll FLY! Especially if you work!!
Try not to stress. Everything will be
GREAT!
Oh, and you'll prob get some blood/urine
work done that day too!!!
Maybe you could start taking some
prenatals! Or start making a list of
things you need to register for!!!

Get yourself some prenatals, that folic
acid is so important in the beginning,
then get a good pregnancy book and start
reading about what's going on in there ^^.
The good news is that you'll probably get
your second appointment not long after the
paper work one.

Register for a swing! My god my baby swing
is a freaking life saver. Sometimes when
Jay's colicky that's all that will calm
her down!

I printed out a nine month calendar from
the internet that had a day by day
explanation of what was happening to the
embryo, then fetus, etc., etc. I hung it
on my wall, it was huge! Everyday I could
look at it and see exactly what day I was
and what was going on.
It was personalized with my due date,
also, and it was right!
P.S. Maybe that was a little like
watching water boil, though, and maybe it
would make it longer, I don't know.

Lol! You all have great ideas! I have been
taking over the counter prenatals and
trying to drink lots of milk, water, and
juice. I found out last night that *we* do
not agree with pepperoni pizza! Haha! I
was burping ALL night long!
Betsy- how far along were you when you
find out?
I do need to make a list of things we will
need...great idea!!
I do work...but I tend to lose
concentration...actually today my boss
called me into the meeting room to tell me
how low my numbers have been this last
week...mreh!
I have baby on the brain lady!!!! HAHA

Oh...so emailing me all day isn't passing
the time enough for you?!
It will go by fast, sweet pea...before you
know it you'll be in labor and you'll be
like "Man, 3 weeks was nothin'!"

For me, waiting for that first appointment
was like an eternity. But after that, it
went by SOOOO fast, and now my baby is
over 7 months old!!!
Enjoy it while it lasts!
Any morning sickness yet?

No sickness...yet...I am going to say I
should expect that next week or so! Haha!
Yeah...there is a lot that needs to be
done before the little one gets here. I am
so scared about miscarriages...I just am
trying to stay positive with happy
thoughts though!!!
