What to say, what to say...?

If you're reading this, it's probably because I've directed you to the site... keep checking back, because here is where you'll find up-to-date information about this little Peanut of ours. Yep... we call him... her? The Baby... Peanut.
I'll try to post updates about doctor's appointments, ultrasound photos, and photos of my ever-expanding baby belly.

For now, here is where I'm at in the pregnancy:



I made my first official appointment yesterday... it's scheduled for the 27th of September, but it's not an actual appointment with the doctor I'll be seeing. Instead, it's an hour-and-a-half meeting with a nurse from the OB-GYN office at Group Health.
I've got a big packet of paperwork to complete before my appointment, and at the appointment, the nurse will cover our family histories, what to do and what not to do while preggo, how I've been feeling, etc. She'll also order blood work to check my Rh factor (more on that later), my iron levels, etc., etc.
Next, I'll make an appointment with a doctor (or probably a Certified Nurse Midwife, CNM for short) for an exam to determine if I'm as far along (or further) than we think, if the baby looks healthy, and all of that good stuff. THEN, I get to schedule an ultrasound... I'm so excited for that part!!
