Today was our first visit with Dr. Garcia since finding out we are pregnant. I had lots of questions and she had lots of information for me! She's so great about taking time and answering all of my endless questions. She did another sonogram because she wanted to see the heart beating, and although there was no printout this time, things are looking good! We saw the heart beating again, which is so awesome. She told me that every Friday will be the start of a new pregnancy week, so this Friday I will be 7 weeks. She cautioned us that we might not want to tell anyone until the 12th week or after, but we decided as soon as we saw that heart beating last week that this is our little baby and we want to share the news. We would rather just enjoy this wonderful time rather than dwell on the possibility of something going wrong.
I have been feeling so much better now that I am eating differently, too. She gave me some other tips on what to do if the nausea comes back since the hormone that makes you nauseaus is apparently going to keep increasing for a while. We bought What to Expect When You're Expecting this past weekend and have been reading up on it. Nick's reading it too so we both know what's going on and what's coming up. It's especially fun to read about the baby's developments each week.
