Appointment Update!
Posted: 02-13-06 15:03pm

So I told a few of you girls that I would update after I went to my second prenatal appointment on friday.. So I figured i'd share with everyone. Here are some of the details!

February 10th was my appointment. I'd have to say I was super disappointed that they didn't have an ultrasound scheduled. I was looking for to my boyfriend actually seeing the baby for the first time, as opposed to just the picture.

The nurse practitioner went in to listen for the heartbeat, and almost immediately was able to locate it, which was rather pleasing to me.. Since she said it normally takes a tad bit longer. My boyfriend was so amazing to be able to hear the heartbeat for the first time, it made me smile. I also found out all of my bloodwork came back 100% excellent. She told me it was impressive. Hah. All of that worrying that something was going to go horribly wrong.. For nothing!!

So.. Just so all of you girls know - everything's great! I'll keep you updated on my next appointment. And I just want to thank you all for the immense amounts of support that i've received!

That is great! How far along are you? Ask them when they will do an ultrasound.
The best to you and yours!

I was amazed at my 1st appt. How quickly they found the heartbeat too!! It's like they know just where to go...It kind of concerned me that they didn't venture around my belly to look for more than one!!

At my 1st ultrasound I saw my bladder and thought it was another head!! Lol.....My Dr. Was cracking up!!

I'm so glad everything is good!! I know how worried you were and I knew that everything would turn out good...Cuz I was just as worried myself!!!! Lol....The paranoia only gets worse!! Lol!!

My next appt. Is the day before mardi gras!! So I get to hear the little heartbeat before I start parading!!!

Good luck!!!
