Today, we have a little sweet pea growing inside my belly! We went to the first visit with the prenatal nurse yesterday morning. While the appointment itself was mostly boring stuff - finding out the due date is in fact January 30, 2013, giving medical history details, peeing in a cup, giving some blood, and receiving tons of information on the dos and dont's of being pregnant, just being at the office with Joey and knowing that they believe there's a little baby growing inside me, etc., made me so excited! I think my excitement and nervousness was obvious, as all the nurses and helpers asked "first pregnancy, huh?" I'm okay with that.
I found out at my dermatology appointment that I did not actually have poison ivy, but in fact had shingles. Apparently pregnancy is a little hard on the body, and the stress caused an outbreak. I was happy to find out that the baby will be fine, and it's just discomfort for me. We are slowing letting more people know about our little one, and praying a lot about our words and actions, and for health.
Our next appointment is next Wednesday :)
