First Appointment! (Second time around ;)

Well its two weeks later, but I am finally blogging about it! I think I was mostly just kind of depressed about it. Everything went well, don't get me wrong, the thing that bothered me was they told me I was two weeks BEHIND what I thought I was. So disheartening!! I was only 7 weeks when I thought I was 9. -_-

Anyway the mother in law went with me because Lee had to work an hour away. So it would have been him  driving to work, coming back to the hospital, driving back to work and then back home. Just ridiculous  If it had been our first baby we probably would have done it, but we are both a little more relaxed this time, lol.

So I met the new doctor! He was really nice. Funny and easy to talk to. The nurse was awesome too, shes so sweet. She stayed in there most of the time which was nice. 

So first they had me sit in the room and wait for a bit and then the nurse came in and did the family history run down. Then he came in for a bit and talked to me. After that the chair at the lab opened up so I went and gave them like six vials of blood, good grief. Then back to the room to get naked, yeah, so he could do my pap smear I was due for. I let the mother in law out of the room for that one, haha. It was so great she came, I would never have been able to handle all that AND Chloe. Speaking of her, she sat as still and quiet as a mouse. I think she was afraid we were at the doctor for her! And was not going to make her self known, haha.

So he said my cervix and all looked good, nice healthy pregnancy look to it. Then he proceeds to inform me I have a backward tipped uterus. What?? I'm nearly 30 years old and have been having regular OBGYN appts for years and I am just NOW hearing this?? Thanks previous doctor.  So anyway, its no big deal. Like 1 in 3 women have one that tips forward or backward. Just thought it was something I'd like to have known.

After that I got to get dressed and head to the ULTRASOUND ROOOOMM! Yeah! Here is our little butter bean! We also got to hear the heartbeat, it sounded so strong and good!! The baby was too small to be moving much so we just sorta saw a blob. The black stuff is the amniotic fluid, and the whole rest of the area is my uterus.

This was when I found out I was way off on my due date. So instead of mid Nov I am due the first of Dec, the 3rd. UGH!! I really, really didn't want a December baby. So I'm hoping I won't have to evict this one and will go early! But we got to hear the heartbeat and see it and it was so neat. Chloe wasn't sure what to think,  LOL. Oh, I forgot to mention because of how my uterus tips and also I was so early along, she couldn't see anything with a normal ultrasound so I had to drop my pants again and have a vaginal one. Those are SO fun! -_- But it was of course worth it!

So after that we were done! We decided my fav mexican restaurant sounded good so headed there after I stopped by work to show my mom and dad the pictures. 

So after this doctors appointment everything has gone down hill. Actually about the beginning of my 6th week. I feel like CRAP most of the day. EVERY DAY. And some days are worse then others. Like Friday I just didn't feel like getting off the coach all day. Thank goodness it was my day off.

When I feel bad I get so ill and very hard to get along with. At least in regards to my poor husband. I'm nauseous most of the day. And about an hour or two after I eat I get so hungry its ridiculous  I mean that kind of stomach-twisting-I-haven't-eaten-ALL-DAY hunger. It sucks. And what really sucks is even though I'm starving, I'm not. I mean, I don't WANT to eat. It's about impossible to find something I think will stay down. And usually even if it is something I think I want, I usually have to make myself eat it. 

SUCKS! Did I mention that?? And I'm not done. The bloating is HORRENDOUS. I started bloating like a month in. Seriously. I look like I am about 20 weeks most of the time. And its all bloat, no baby. Depressing. So I just look fat really (its all about under my belly button). Plus this means normal clothes are totally out of the question unless they are unbottoned and most times unzipped. I have to use a hair rubber band to keep them up, or use the belly band thing I have. Or just say the heck with it and wear my maternity clothes, which I'm doing today, lol. I really like my maternity capris, they are pretty darn cute. But most of my shirts I have now come to just around the top of my belt (which I can no longer wear) and that is not long enough to cover unbuttoned pants/belly bands, etc. And do you think I have money to buy more clothes? Hahahahaha. NO. Sigh, I'm such a complainer aren't I??

I was nowhere near this bad with Chloe. So does that mean boy? Or just a particularly ornery girl!? lol. Chinese calendar was saying boy, but now that I likely conceived in March instead of Feb it is saying girl. So we will see! My 'mommy feeling' is boy, I had the same feeling with Chloe, but girl. So we will see if my insticts are right around July sometime!

Not much else going on. Next appointment is the 15th!
