I woke up this morning excited for my first appointment.  Driving to the doctor’s office, it starting becoming real.  i met with one of the midwives because my regular doctor was booked(she is always a busy, busy woman).  i had the usual questions, the feet in the stirrups tests, and the ever exciting weighing in.  She used the doppler to try to find the heart beat.  She couldn’t find it.  She had to leave me laying on the table with the goo on my belly and went to get the ultrasound machine.  i told her no problem, i’m not going anywhere anytime soon.  After a few minutes with the ultrasound machine, she couldn’t say 100% she saw the heartbeat.  She had already checked my cervix and my uterus so i’m not too worried.  I have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.  It must be God’s great sense of humor.  This is just how it always seems to be with me.  At least i will get some early pictures:)
