Well we just had our first ultrasound, and we are not quite as far along as we thought. We are 9 weeks 2 days! It was amazing seeing this tiny living being. Watching the tiny heart beat was one of the greatest things to see.  It finally seems a little more real.

Blood tests and screenings

I didn’t realize how many blood tests and screenings you needed while pregnant! And not to mention peeing in a cup every single doctors visit. For someone who isn’t a fan of hospitals and needles this wasn’t too pleasant. They didn’t even let my hubby into the area where they took my blood.  And I can’t forget about the lovely orange crush type drink they make you drink, before having to wait an hour until they can take blood to test for gestational diabetes.
