I had my Dr appointment yesterday and I have to say as excited as I was, I was also scared. I always have anxiety going to the hospital since everything happened, and well, a lot more of it now because I'm pregnant. Trent had to work so he couldn't go with me and no kids are allowed due to the Oink Flu, so I was alone. I weighed, yeah down 2 lbs (stupid all day "morning" sickness). Ok I know your not supposed to lose weight or be excited about it but I felt fat and pudgy you know? I can button my levi's still which I am grateful but I know that this being my 4th pregnancy I will pop out probably any day.
Then it was off for a urine sample and then BP, perfect and low. Then the nurse left me alone for a minute to grab the Dr for the US. Then the panic set in. Boy am I glad she had already taken my BP or it would've been through the roof. I was scared, scared at what they'd find or not find. Its hard in the first few months because you can't feel anything, but because of everything with Harry and what they found on my last US, a small hematoma or pool of blood( not nearly like I had with Harry, but there was one there) and a large cyst. I was worried. So I said a quick prayer, pleading that everything would be ok, normal, and I could calm down and enjoy seeing the baby. I think my Dr could tell my anxiety when he walked in and he was so comforting and nice. He reassured me that what happened last time was just not normal at all and the chances of that exact same thing happening basically were non. So the minute he put the US on my stomach he smiled and quite excitedly said, "I couldn't be more happy. The baby is perfect, the heartbeat is perfect, and well, no blood, no cyst." I was shocked, amazed. Every little worry I had was gone. The baby was measuring perfect, ahead of schedule. And was so cute, looks like a baby now. My Dr just kept smiling, and just kept saying, "I am so happy for you. So relieved. Everything should be just fine." I love him, he's the best and I know I made the right decision going back to him. He did save my life and helped through the hardest time in my life. My prayer was answered. I have nothing to worry about or complain at this point. I couldn't be more grateful. As much as the nausea and headaches are right now, I can't complain. I am healthy and so is my baby. YEAH!!!!!!
