2nd Prenatal Appt. (9/29/10)

So, i had my 2nd prenatal appointment on 9/29/10. I know i am a bit late writing this but i haven't gotten to it yet.

The first appointment i went to was just a pap smear and breast exam..so i was pretty excited about this one.

I went in and had to pee in a cup (this is totally going to get harder once i get bigger!) they need to check protein and sugar i think so i have to do that everytime.

Then after waiting forever i got to see the dr. i got my results for my pap test... not so good

atypical cells so i need to get another test done ..im not sure when.

but lets hope im ok and this doesnt affect the baby.

I talked to the doctor a bit about my nausea and how the reglan wasnt working very good anymore so she wrote me a script for zofran.

After that came the part i was looking forward too..

hearing baby's heartbeat<3

WELL... unsuccessful

she tried for what seemed like forever and just couldnt hear the heartbeat. I was getting very nervous and nearly in tears. she kept saying oh its normal sometimes to not hear it yet on the doppler.. but me being a first time mom totally freaked out

especially because i had heard the babys heartbeat at 7 weeks a month earlier

so she gave me a script to get an ultrasound

we thought id end up getting an appointment for tomorrow but one of the other nurses went to the other room and called across the street to the hospital and they were able to get me in right away for an ultrasound.

I drank a crapload of water on the short ride over there and got seen fairly quickly

Got onto the table and the tech put the magic wand on my belly and bam there was baby..

turned up the sound and i heard the heartbeat

what a relief

176 bmp

i couldnt believe how big he/she got since my first ultrasound at 7 weeks

baby was swimming so fast in there too

the tech actually put the wand on me and held it still and i could see baby swim back and forth

it was amazing

im so glad that baby is ok

hopefully the doppler works when i go back later this month!!!
