Yesterday was our very first doctor visit. Not so exciting normally, but this one went unusually strange. Originally, Jon wasn't going to be able to go with me, so I asked his soon-to-be nurse sister to tag along and she so gratefully did. First we went to Panera bread for lunch since a bread bowl sounded so yummy to me. We finished with lunch a little early so we went to Dairy Queen for some ice cream. As we were waiting in line I was noticing all the fried food they sell along with their ice cream and I started to get a little nauseated. It was almost our time to order when I started dry heaving in line so I ran to a bathroom that I prayed would exist, which it did. After I was done I went back into line to find Ashley had already order and started eating her ice cream (but I didn't mind since I wasn't about to put anything back down my stomach) so we left.
As we were leaving we got a text from her sister and we decided to bring her along. I figured two guests weren't that bad. As we were heading to the doctors office, my husband called and said he was almost there. By now I would have an entourage.
At the appointment only my husband was allowed in. I had the normal pap and then she measured the size to see how far along I am. Here's the saddening part. I am actually earlier than I thought. Good part, baby still exists. Sad part, she or he will be in there longer than I was anticipating. My nurse practitioner proceeded to do an informal ultrasound anyway since she new I was a little bummed. Jon and I could see just a tiny tiny glimpse of a white dot which is that precious little baby inside of me.
OOh, also part of the sadness. I had been feeling pretty nauseous recently but it wasn't that bad, well possible explination I am now only 6 1/2 weeks preggers. Could be so much more sickness to come!!!
Anyway, I have 6 more weeks till I can hear that heartbeat!
YOu will hear that little one's heart beat sooner than you know it! Emetrol is the key to nausea!
