We went to our first OB/GYN appointment and I was a little nervous as what to expect, but not as nervous as Andy seemed. He was weirded out by everything in the room, the stirrups and the "wand." I wasn't too bad. I guess I was more freaked out at any possible negative news about the baby. I definitely was freaked out about what was going to happen.
The OB/GYN is so nice and made the both of us feel comfortable so we are both happy we went with her and are relieved we liked the first doctor we went to. That makes it one less thing to worry about.
After a lot of paper work and much conversation we started on the exam portion. Once we got to the ultra sound it was so crazy to see the tiny little fetus with a beating heart on the monitor. It almost brought me to tears. It made everything seem more real and a lot of my worries of being a bad mother kind of went away...temporarily. After she pointed out the fetus I immediately asked her "Is there only one in there?" I was worried because Andy has twins in his family. She double checked and confirmed there is only one. Phew! Two babies at one time just seems like a lot to take in. On the plus side it's a "one and done" kind of thing, but I prefer one baby at a time.
Here is our first photo of "Fred." Cute huh?
