So we went for our first ultrasound today. I found out that basically I wasn't pregnant enough to have one yet. They scheduled it way too early, however we got a few pictures of what they called the sac. They were not able to locate the yolk yet. I also found out that I have a tipped uterus and a small cyst on one of my ovaries, which the Dr. said not to worry about. So after many hours of waiting (they weren't the most efficient that day) I was told to come back in 3 weeks. So we have our 2nd ultra sound May 15 as well as our firs Dr. Apt.
Even though there wasn't much there to see yet, it was still really exciting to be there with Rob. I will always remember that day.
HOW FAR ALONG?: Unofficially about 5 and 1/2 weeks.
TOTAL WEIGHT GAIN?: none yet
SLEEP?: I am sleeping much better than I was last week. Maybe I wasn't sleeping before because I was just too excited.
BEST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: Telling Rob's family that we were pregnant. I know its still really early, but we just couldn't hold it in longer than a week. They were so happy for us.
WORST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: Having the doctor's and nurses not really tell us anything at our appointment. They didn't even go over what I should do and not do, eat and not eat etc. I am not sure how happy I was with MGH, but we are going to wait and meet with the Doctor to see if we like him before thinking about going somewhere else.
MISS ANYTHING?: Sushi and wine
FOOD CRAVINGS?: No just need to eat on more of a regular schedule so that I don't get nauseous.
ANYTHING MAKING ME QUEASY / SICK?: Just an empty stomach. I feel pretty queasy all morning, but feel better in the late afternoon and at night.
GENDER?: Still holding steady that we are not going to find out.
SYMPTOMS / MOODS?: I am crazy emotional. I swing from one extreme to the next in an hour. Its very tiring. I am also incredibly tired. I feel like I could sleep all day long. I even had to put my head on my desk and close my eyes for a few minutes today. I have also been waking up with a headache every day. Not sure if that is related though.
HAPPY or MOODY MOST OF THE TIME?: Very very happy.
LOOKING FORWARD TO...?: Telling my family this weekend when they come up for dinner. Rob and I were just thinking of leaving the ultrasound on the fridge and see when someone notices it. We'll see. I am not sure how I want to tell them yet.
