1st Appointment!

Last Tuesday we had our first appointment. We haven't actually picked a place yet, but we went with the first doctor that had availability. We absolutely loved her and the hospital, but realized it's a pretty far drive from home, especially in traffic (not good when you're in labor, I'm sure!). So we might just need to go with Option B even though we don't know much about that hospital except that it's close to school and home. We still have six more months to make a decision, right? Only kidding...

Back to the appointment - we were lucky enough to have an ultrasound and actually see our little one!! Our doctor even printed off pictures for us which were pretty amazing. It's crazy to already see arms, legs and a body developing even though the baby is only 10 weeks and about 2 inches long. That definitely made it more real for us! We also found out our due date - Mother's Day 2010 (May 9th). How appropriate!!

In the midst of the appointment, I was still pretty sick but was so happy to find out that everything looked good so far! We actually had a few days that gave us a little a scare, but we were able to go back into the doctor on Friday and hear the heartbeat! We were actually told that it's a very strong heartbeat for being so young! Good news!!

We're hoping to get pics up here soon but still have a defunct camera. I've felt so lost without it lately so hopefully we'll break down and buy a new one soon - good excuse to upgrade!!
