I admit, I had nice high expectations for myself when I started this blog. I would update it regularly! I would log all kinds of stuff for posterity. But when push comes to shove, and the choice is reading/watching TV/playing toontown/going to bed way early or typing on the baby blog, my choice has been laziness.
Bad mommy... no cookie.
So, hopefully this update will redeem me a bit.
So, I had that visit with my doc. And oh yeah, definitely pregnant. I was so anxious. I was convinced there would be something wrong, like I'd have a little alien-cthulhu baby. Is it alive? Does it have multiple heads? Is the heart beating ok?
So, I'm sure I sounded like a complete idiot to Dr. Patrick. She just chuckled at me and assured me that everything was fine and that the baby would be human.
She fondled me a bit and gave me a pap (which was fine, phew), then off to the ultrasoung room! I waited and pawed through the bag of pregnant lady goodies they gave me. She came in and turned down the lights and got started. And there on the screen was my baby! And there was definitely only one head! Huzzah! There was the little head, and I could see that tiny heart beating away. I was so overcome by wonder I cried. I could make out the head and heart easy, the rest was just a tadpole-ish shape. She said everything looked fine and that I was 7 weeks along. Wow! Then she printed me off a little picture and let me put my pants on. Next visit at 11 weeks.
