10 Weeks = Our First Nurse's Visit

Well, we were supposed to have our nurses' visit back in May but the nurse went home sick. So I set up another appointment for our anniversary (June 16th) but they called yesterday and said they had a cancellation today at 5pm - would we want to come in? I said yes because I figured that would give the lab a week to get everything done before we see the doctor on the 19th.

We got there right on time and checked in with the clerical worker. When the nurse called my name I got really excited - I was finally going to see someone! She took my weight and led me into an exam room. She asked me about my medical history, then asked Brian about his. She answered any questions she could and wrote down the rest for the doctor to answer. She gave us a bag filled with great information about pregnancy and birth as well as different tests we can have throughout our pregnancy. Though I was sad we didn't get to see or hear our baby I was happy that we got things started.

Right now I am 10 weeks and 5 days. I haven't gotten sick but I have been nauseous on and off this past week. It feels like when I first found out I was pregnant - I get really nauseous when I DON'T eat. Other than that things are going well!


Baby V is growing:
He is about the size of a kumquat and weighs about 5g. His hair is growing along with the irises of his eyes and his FINGERNAILS! Only 210 days left!
