The first visit

My first ob/gyn visit was very routine. I sat and talked to the doctor for a little bit. She delved all into my personal business and the nurse did the usual... urine sample, weight, blood pressure - stuff like that... Next thing I know I was getting undressed from the waist down for a total stranger getting ready for my first real ultrasound. Judging from my best friend, I thought I was gonna have to beat the doctor down to get that done at the first visit. I guess she figured aunt flow hadn't come in a while so I might be pretty far along. Anyway, I hopped up on the table, she placed the warm gel (yes, mine was warm) on my tummy and started poking around with the ultrasound machine. In about 3 seconds she found the little pea and I could see the heart beating extra fast. Too bad Jerry wasnt there. He missed the opportunity - work called... After the ultrasound and getting to see the little one that was growing inside of me I had to get blood drawn. Too bad that had to be the ending of the first appointment...



Can you understand this picture? Yeah I wouldnt be able to either if it wasnt for the ultrasound machine. I wouldn't know what the heck this little thing was if I hadnt seen it moving around. Well, the plus signs show where the head and tail of the baby are... just so you know! Pay attention, you'll have a quiz later! 8 weeks and only 32 (more or less) to go...
