week ???

I had my first doctor's appointment yesterday. I'm fine and healthy, but the doctor couldn't figure out exactly how far along i am. He was saying 10 weeks based on my last period, but i said i'm not that far along. I guessed about 7. During the exam he said I'm further then 7 but not quite 10... so he's sending me for a sonogram. I'm excited, we'll get to see the baby early :-)

They had to tell you about all of the prenatal screenings and that scared me a bit, but we wouldn't terminate anyway so I think I'm skipping most of them. I'd be more worried if there was a false positive then if i just didn't know. I may get one for spina bifida if it's offered that way we can make sure we'd have the correct surgeons at the hospital to minimize effects.

I'm getting bloated and my feet are swollen. Other then that, i look the same. I did wear my first maternity pants today and they are SO much comfier then my regular pants. I still have some morning sickness and food aversions, but I'm feeling pretty good.

I fly out to Charleston on Sunday morning, Erin and I are going on a 5 night cruise leaving Monday afternoon. Joe's being great considering i'm flying out on our first anniversary. He's been wonderful with the pregnancy and everything else too. I'm really lucky.
