Doc. Appt.

*Update - just got a call from doctors office this afternoon - they are sending me to get bloodwork done again tomorrow afternoon to check my HCG levels to make sure they are going UP and also calling in a prescription to increase my progesterone - which is alittle low.*

Called yesterday and got an appt this morning.  They had me go for bloodwork yesterday afternoon, so with all these appts, I felt the need to tell my boss what is happening.  I am not the type to hid things especially in a professional environment and with my history and not knowing what is ahead of me with this pregnancy, I would rather her know then it be a surprised.  She has been so good to me over the past 2 years (I knew we were meant to work together back at my first interview) and she is so supportive as well.  When I asked her to come see me, she welled up in tears of joy the minute I told her.  She told me "do what you gotta do" and she will pray for me and the baby...how sweet is that.  I feel truly blessed to have people like this in my life.

So, this morning appt. went well.  My bloodwork hadn't been read yet at the lab., so no results from that.  I peed in the cup and then got weight and blood pressure checked and waited to see the Doc.  She came in and had the biggest smile on her face and said "CONGRATULATIONS" and gave me the biggest hug.  She said, she was alittle in shock when she read my name on her books for this appt, but she couldn't be happier for us and she says, this couldn't have happen to a nicer person.  She is a really sweet doc and I do like her alot (even if you have to wait awhile in her office...it is a good size practice).  She did an internal exam and then gave me some samples of 2 different prenatal vitamins to try.  She might want me to go back and get some more bloodwork in a day or two...the office will call me, if need be.  She booked me for an ultrasound in 4 weeks, but that might be pushed up as well depending on bloodwork.  So, all in all, don't have a due date (she said too early to tell) and to just keep doing what I am doing...no worries, no stress, plenty of rest and good eating....sounds great to me!

So, all in all things look good for now...taking it day by day and leaving it in God's hands is all I can do.
