4/27/09 First Doctors Appointment WEEK 4

Well I have been suffering from morning and night sickness and have been exhausted however today was a very exciting day. I couldn't wait to get to the doctors. Dr. Bethal was very excited to see us back and pregnant. We did the normal things, pregnancy test, weight check, ultrasound and question and answer session. It was still very early in the pregnancy so we couldn't see baby Guinan yet on the Ultrasound, but we did see some black shadowing the shape of a boomerang that Dr. Bethal said was where the pregnancy is growing. Very cool. I have no idea how he could find it or tell but was sure glad he could. He sent me off for some lab work and wanted to make sure that I had gotten my Progesterone script filled and was taking it. He than switched all my medications for the pneumonia to some that were baby friendly and ordered me back to bed to get better. Dave and I left for the lab.



On the way to the lab we decided that I should tell my bosses right away as we knew there where many doctor appointments in the next few weeks. So after my labs I went to work and spoke to both bosses at the same time. I told them the news and that we didn't want anyone else to know due to the high chances I could miscarry. They both took the news very well and agreed that I should not do swallowing studies and said don't worry we will have someone else cover you, you don't need to be down in Radiology. I was thankful as that was a concern of mine. I was then off to bed again and felt relaxed that work took the news so well.
