12 week appointment...

Today was the first visit with my regular OB. It went very well. They found the baby's heartbeat with their doppler thing and it was 174 which is about what it has been. It took them a while to find it and it started to make me nervous, but I remembered how at my last ultrasound, the baby kept moving away and we had to chase it. My Doctor told me that this pregnancy is no longer high risk since I've about made it into the second trimester. She has been recieving updates from my specialist and knows how well things have been going up to this point. Everything is looking great! She also said that the delivery of this baby should be easier. Last time was rough. With 3rd degree tears, forceps, and Brady coming face up instead of down, he was a tough one. I was feeling it for weeks after! I have another appointment on Monday, right before we head out of town. I should get another ultrasound and I'll post before we leave on Tuesday! I also want to say "THANKS" for all the thoughts and prayers on our behalf. It's always a scary first trimester for me and we appreciate all the love and support!

I'm glad everything is going well for this baby! I'm so sorry about your delivery with brady. That was a rough delivery. I bet you did have a long recovery. I hope your delivery on this one will be easier for you!
