I was right!

The doctor was able to see and hear a good healthy heart beat from our little one today!  AND for the first time in my "career" of being pregnant the EDD that I had was the same one that the doctor got with ultrasound measurements.  I'm going to have to do some special tests and such  due to my blood pressure history however for now he wants me to stop taking my BP meds.  My blood pressure was actually very low today and he thinks that I do not need the meds until later.  He wants me to stop the drug before I do blood work and such to get a baseline on various things.  I am kind of relieved that my blood pressure was so low as that possibly explains why I have been so very exhausted this time around.  Maybe I will have some energy again soon!  I do plan on taking weekly prego pics to post on this blog primarily for the fun of doing it for the first time.  


Baby's picture:
EDD 2/05/13 (Which is also my little brother's birthday and, I found out today, the doctor's birthday).

(The EDD here is 2/3 but the doctor thought that it was incorrect and put the 5th in my chart FYI)

Baby Doctor

Tomorrow, I go to the OB for the first time for this baby.  I have been pretty quiet on here lately because my pregnancy and Chris' illness are really all that has been going on.  I have been so sick though I am improving.  Chris has been so sick but we think that he is improving too.  I have hesitated to write too much about it as well until I know that the baby is OK.  I really didn't realize how nervous I was about tomorrow's appointment until it has gotten closer.  I have been so excited to find out my actual due date (since I know my estimate of 020513 is going to be way off--I always am).  However, now I am realizing how scared I am to watch the screen during the ultrasound.  I did not expect to be this scared.  


  Anyway, after tomorrow I plan to blog a little about the pregnancy.  I've never taken weekly or regular pictures of myself in a pregnancy.  I figure the 6th time is a good time to start.
