Yesterday afternoon I went to Capitol Women's Care for my first ob appointment. I was so happy I was beaming! First, I met with the nurse and she explained all of the blood tests that I had to get done that day (ie Rh factor, iron, etc) . Then we went over the logistics of things, when I will have my appointments, a good exercise plan, genetic testing,etc. It was funny when we went over our history she asked me, "what is the baby's father's name?" and I was so puzzled. I just had never heard Stan be referred to as the "baby's father". It was awesome! When I finally got my mind back I gave the right information and the nurse and I shared a laugh at my realization that there's a baby in there. She also gave me my third HCG level (which was just at the beginning of week 5) it was over 2,000! I was like "yes, I am a hormone machine!!!"
The nurse took my weight which was higher than I wanted it to be at this point but I have no worries. So my weight was 251. I know that's a lot and I am really mad at myself but the focus now is not on losing weight so I just have to see the number and understand that I have a tough road ahead (post pardum). Then she walked to me the examination room where Dr. Davis would come in to examine me.
Shortly after he introduced himself, did a pap smear, and confirmed the pregnancy. We sat in his office and he calculate my EDD based on a 28 day cycle (which I don't have) so a tentative EDD is 12/11/2008!! I am thinking it will probabally be a week or so later than that but its all good- it's only an estimate anyway! He wants me to have a sonogram to confirm how far along I am and that is scheduled on May 1st. I will totally post pictures and all the good stuff so you can see.

"Peanut" Murgolo
