Hooray! We went to the doctor today for our "New OB Patient Appointment" and 2.5 hours later, we got lucky and had another ultrasound! Yay!
The appointment was very thorough. We sat with a nurse for awhile and answered tons of questions about family history, she went over some classes to take at the hospital and gave us a little goody bag filled with information. After that, we saw the doctor and had an exam and talked some more. Then we went into the little lab room where they took six (6!!!!) vials of blood. Finally, we thought we were going to talk to the doctor again and be out of there, but we got a lovely surprise and they did an ultrasound! (James said he would scan the picture.) It was SO great to see the little baby again. That little ball of cells is definitely forming into a baby and there was a very strong heartbeat. (Around 170.) I was so relieved to hear the heartbeat again. Eventually, we do go in to see the doctor and he just said that everything looks great! The doctor said that he didn't do the ultrasound because he was concerned about anything, so that's good.
All in all, it was a great appointment, even though it was long. ;)
