First Prenatal Appointment

I went in yesterday for my first appointment with the nurse. All my blood work is good and my blood pressure was great. She gave me lots of free stuff and a book, which looks like it will be a good read:) I got a prescription for Prenatal Vitamins and an Iron supplement. She also gave me an overload of information and asked a ton of medical history questions. Then we scheduled our first ultrasound for Nov. 1st!! YEAH! That is what I am really looking forward to! I will also have a full check-up and Pap Smear since I am due for one. So that is the story for now.

As far as I am doing, I am still really tired and a little nauseous more so at night. However, I do realize that it could totally be worse. Jill is taking awesome care of me and being such a trooper with my mood swings- yes they have already taken over at times:) I couldn't ask for a better partner- she is amazing!! So I guess we are all doing good and hanging there right now!

I hope all is well with my blogger friends-- love you all!!

Oh this is great news! You are both going to be awesome mommies... and time will pass by so quickly. Take every opportunity to get pics of your belly )and each other too!) because once baby gets here it's too easy to forget. Congrats again!

Being nauseous is great! It means your giving that baby a lot of yourself so he/she can grow!!

Just an FYI - we switched prenatals a few times because Lois discovered that the prenatals were making her MORE sick and she ended up going to a Target brand that were easier on her stomach.

Can't wait to see pics on November 1st!
