My first prenatal appointment yesterday

[Guest guest]

Went to my OB yesterday and everything looks fine. We were a little

worried because we found out hubby had a prostate infection about the

time we conceived this baby. Dr. said she wasn't worried about it,

she didn't see anything to alarm her. My blood pressure was 114/60

and my Hgb was 11.2 which I was told was fine. I explained to the dr

that I didn't really feel pregnant other than being dizzy at times

and she said that my body was probably used to the increase in

hormones. This is our third so she said it was normal. She left the

room and said I could get dressed. When she came back she asked if I

wanted to go a quick ultrasound. Who wouldn't want to? I quickly said

yes. She even gave me a picture. I couldn't really see what she said

she saw but she is the dr. Said she saw a blip for the heart beat.

Dr. also did a measurement and came back as 6 wks 6 dys. I was 7 wks

yesterday. Just about right. I also requested a prescription for

chewable prenatals and she was happy to write that out for me. I

don't like her scale though. I weighed at home before showering in

the morning and my scale said 175. Her scale fully clothed said 180.

I went home and my scale said about the same fully clothed so I guess

it is right. I just don't like it. Haven't gained anything yet. My

next appointment is 12/8. Dr. said we should be able to hear the

heartbeat by then.
