8w5d

I was nervous. I was so glad that John was there with me. The nurse was happy to see me again and gave me a big hug. We went over my chart and asked the routine questions. Nothing new, nothing I didn't already know. First thing first, was to get the ultrasound to determine how far along we are. I cannot tell you how happy I was to see the heartbeat. 162bpm. Everything looks good. I cried. I was a little surprised at how far along I am though. But once I did the math to when I thought we concieved, it added up. Next we talked to Dr. H. He understood my nervousness and was quick to calm me and reassure me that they would do everything they could to monitor this pregnancy. Starting with prenatals (of course) and baby aspirin (just a precaution). We go back in 4 weeks for another ultrasound and another appt. Then I will probably have to go in every 2 weeks. Each time I go in they will do an ultrasound.

After the appointment, John and I went to brunch at Black Bear Diner. I love that place! The menu is HUGE and I can never decide on what I want. I opted for the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. Totally yummy.

Okay, next step is to tell my supervisor so I can get paperwork started for HR. She will be the only one that knows, other than John and I. We (I) still want to keep things on the down low for now.
