On December 29, 2011 we had our first doctor appointment. I was very nervous.. I kept thinking what if something it wrong, or what if there is no heartbeat. I was also a little nervous because I was going to a new doctor. My OB/GYN that I had been seeing for years retired and I had to change doctors, just so happened that I hadn't yet been due for my yearly exam until December so I hadn't gotten the chance to meet her. Well, I love her! She is young, very nice, and just amazing all around. Anyways, we got there and got back to the room and talked for a while due to the fact that i was a new patient, she was trying to get caught up on my medical history. I had to have a couple cervical biopsies a few years ago where they removed a small portion of my cervix - my previous doctor said this could cause issue with future pregnancies but he wasn't too concerned. When I told her about these she said it wasn't something to be alarmed about but she would like to monitor me a little closer and have me come in for ultrasounds every 2 weeks to measure the length of my cervix. Plus side, I get plenty of opportunities to see my little one growing. Downside, that is a lot of doctors appointments. But I didn't mind, I actually felt much better knowing that she was keeping an eye on it.
Below are two ultrasound photos from my first visit. I was 9 weeks and 4 days. Sorry they are sideways, they weren't on the file I had saved on my computer but showed up like that on here. The first picture is a 4D picture.
