First Ultrasound!
Today I had my first prenatal appointment with Kaiser!
It was a basic informational meeting to go over what medicines I can take and what I should and should not be eating. They also informed me about classes I can take and a rundown of tests they will do and appointments I will have. After sharing my concerns with the doctor...that this is my first pregnancy and I am absolutely terrified that I am going to sneeze and do something to ruin this and hurt the baby..she offered an ultrasound! JOY!
So first of all laying down in that room with my pants low on my hips...she put this gel on my abdomen...very warm gel surprisingly. Then for the next few minutes she proceded to move the little handle thing around on me while she stared concentrating on the monitor. All I could do was imagine something was wrong! It felt like it took forever before she finally said everything looked good! Thank God! While she was staring at the screen with pursed lips and furrowed brow I was having a series of minor heart attacks! Did I mention I have high anxiety?? haha
SO everything is good with my little baby pumpkin! I measured exactly 6 weeks one day.. and the heart is just beginning to beat registering into a little flicker on the screen. This little while dot is my whole world! It is absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to see my baby again!
