First Appointment

Today was my very first appointment at the Women Care Clinic. I actually wasn't nervous going into the center as I thought I would be (I'm sure Mom remembers my wisdom teeth, cried before I even got in the room). After I filled out paperwork for a half an hour and waited a little bit, I was called in there. The lady was so nice and made me feel really comfortable. She's the midwives nurse, but is also a Doula on the side. She doesn't do it very often but if insurance covers it or if we can afford it, I would love it if she's my Doula. She was so amazing and made me feel 100% comfortable. Brian will tell you I told you so, because he told me I would feel way more comfortable with a midwife than a regular doctor, and well he's totally right (but don't tell him I said that). They drew my blood, very first time of experiencing that and it actually wasn't even close to as bad as I thought it was going to be. I didn't watch and Brian held my hand the whole time. I also got to hear the heart beat which was totally cool because every time she would put the thingy on my belly, the baby would move really fast and I could feel it. It was awesome!! My ultrasound appointment is Tuesday, October 2. I can't wait!!

First Blog

I figured I'd better get one of these things so my family can see pictures of me and my boyfriend Brian because we live 800 miles (give or take) away!! Plus, since I'm having a baby and they won't get to see him/her every single day I will take a plethora of pictures and post them so it's like they will see him/her every single day! I'm really excited about being a mom and having a baby with my boyfriend Brian, he has taught me so much already and I'm really excited to learn more. He is the oldest of 3 kids and has lots of little cousins. I, on the other hand am the youngest of 3 kids and haven't really had much experience with any babies or children. I will have my very first appointment this Thursday the 27th and will be giving everyone a full report of the newest addition to our little family.
