We had our 1st appointment with our midwife yesterday. Yes, I said midwife. We've chosen to go this route for many reasons and after much education/research on the state of OB care in our country today. I wont get too preachy on you but I would encourage anyone who finds themselves to be with child to do their homework on every option they have! Okay, that's all you'll have to hear about that. Haha
The appointment went well. She went over a lot of stuff with us....most of which I already knew, but it was informative nonetheless. Our next appointment is in 3 weeks (I'll be 12weeks along) and after that they'll come at 4 week intervals until later in the preganancy. Hopefully on our next visit we'll be able to hear the heartbeat on the Doppler. We tried this time but we didnt hear anything. That's totally normal though since your doctor/midwife usually cant pick anything up until you're 10-12 weeks along. This week Nugget will grow to be 1 inch long and it looks more and more human each day :) Yay!
Overall, I'm feeling pretty great. I'm still very tired and new this week....I'm super bloated :(. I'm just so excited that I haven't been experiencing any morning sickness....some headaches, yes. But no time in front of the toilet. Thank God!
Well, until next time :) We love you!
