The doctor is in


This morning was our first visit to the ob/gyn. I wish I had some great, exciting, or jaw dropping news for you. Unfortunatly, at this point theres not much to show and tell. We went in having done most of the paper work last night cutting down our wait and time in the waiting area down to a minimum. Then into the exam room, we met with a medical assistant that took the medical history and gave us a little goody bag with some pre-natal vitamin samples, some cds for the computer, phamplets, and a journal for Julie to track her pregnancy. Also I think I had a little too much fun playing with the exam table and being nosy around the room. After that was done we met with the actual doctor, she was very nice and pleasant. She confirmed the pregnancy and we are still going with the due date of March 21, 2011. Then she went over a little more medical background, some do's and dont's, question and answers, gave Julie a little physical once over and that was that. On the way home we filled Julie's pre-natal vitamin prescription and now she just needs to visit a lab to get some blood tests done before we go back. So, for now that is all that is happening. Next doctors appointment is the end of August, and were told at that one we'll actually get some pictures and stuff to actually share with everyone. We stopped on the way home and used a ten dollar Kohl's certificate we got in the mail and bought some unisex bibs, out of the urge to get something for the little one, so they are added into what I like to refer to as the "Baby bin" where we are slowly going to start our accumaltion of all things baby. Until the next appointment, probably once a week I will update here and let everyone know how Julie's feeling and any new symptoms, all that good stuff. So once again, sorry there isn't more but theres still 8 months ahead of us and the closer we get the more will be happening.
