The first ultrasound


So today was my first official ob/gyn visit, scheduled with a nurse practitioner. We had a huge list of questions, so I think we kind of over-ran our scheduled 45min session time :D We weren't too impressed with the NP's knowledge or her answers, we thought she could have done so much better. Also due to the delay, she literally ran through the list of first trimester screening and diagnostic tests.

Anyways, we got a first peek at the little angel :-) It was so small, with a blip blip blip blip small dot flickering away to glory... the heart of my little one! Thankfully we could actually see it, no Rachel moments here. It somehow didn't feel that much of an "oh, wow!!" moment then, as it feels now :-)

Then came the ugh part - the pap smear. Why can't they be gentle, I have no clue! The urine and blood tests were next. The whole thing ate up almost 2.5hrs, Amit's day was shot after that. Since we carpooled, he came over to my office and worked from our cafe. That was super cute :-)

Oh yes, we got a first pic of the ultrasound...
