I'm 11 weeks pregnant...yesterday, I'm 11 weeks 1 day today! :) We got to meet the doctor yesterday, she was very nice. Our appointment went well. My blood pressure is good, I am down 1 pound on their scale since my previous visit. But the very best part of the visit was hearing Baby Chick's heartbeat for the very first time. It was amazing. It was a lound fast swishing noise. The doctor asked me to be patient with her while she tried to hear the heartbeat. Since I am only 11 weeks it could be hard to find. Not my Baby Chick!! As soon as the doctor put the doppler on my belly, we could hear it right away!! Beating at 170 bpm, Baby Chick is doing well. My next appointment will be with the NP in 5 weeks instead of 4. Since there is bloodwork to do at 16 weeks, we are just combining the two appointments. AND...we scheduled the BIG ultrasound. We will get to find out if Baby Chick is a boy or a girl on Wednesday July 1st. 3 days before my birthday...I can't think of a better present!
