Baby Beatty

So as most of you know, I'm pregnant. Jason and I are expecting our first little one together October 10, 2010. As of today I am 9 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I had our first doctor's appointment yesterday. I am going to see Dr. Kotain. I just started seeing her and I (HATE) doctors but she is really cool. She's very informative, very nice, young, and she is very down to earth. Made me feel a lot better about the doctor's visit esp having to go alone. That is something I'm definitly going to have to deal with and get through because with Hayden JJ went to every appointment. It kills Jason that he can't go. He is so excited for this baby and wants to be apart of every moment and can't be. So I instantly give him updates after the appointment.

They did an ultrasound this appointment, to see exactly how big the baby was at this point to give me an accurate due date instead of just guessing. I loved it. the baby is so tiny right now its crazy to see. The heart beat was so strong too. It made me very happy. My mom got to watch and hear this as well. I had her come in for the ultrasound.

In a few weeks I go for another ultra sound to do some scans for different diseases to make sure the baby is healthy, then i go back for my next check up on April 7th.

The hardest thing I'm going to have to accept carrying this baby is the not lifting part. I'm not supposed to lift anything over 15lbs esp into the second trimester... This is going to be hard because that means I can't carry Hayden around anymore and pick him up without him climbing on stuff to get to me or climbing into the chair to cuddle with me. I'll get through it it'll just be hard.. because he is definitly no where near 15lbs anymore. lol.

I think that's about it for updates right now... Here's the ultra sound pic of our baby that I got yesterday. And of course a pic of the tests i took, plus a lab at Luke airforce base took a test too...:)
