1st Ultrasound!

So I had my first OB visit today. And she did an ultrasound. There's not much to see - the baby is only 3 mm long! The larger black item is my uterus (I think) and that little speck in there is the baby! At least I can stop worrying about that. For some irrational reason, I thought she would not be able to find anything and would think I was crazy and that I was never pregnant!

The due date is 11/10 (based on counting days) or 11/13 (based on the size in the ultrasound).

That's about all that happened. She answered my questions and she seems very laid back about everything. Which is good - cuz everyone knows what a worrier I am! Here were her answers to my questions:

• Can I travel - yes (wshew - since I need to be in Montana in April and Orlando in May!)
• Can I bowl - yes (double wshew - I would miss my bowling)
• Can I get a massage - yes (sigh - can't wait!)
• Can I take any cold medicines - YES (could have used that tip on Monday)
• Can I drink diet soda - yes (good thing, because diet caffeine free dr pepper was my substitute for coke zero and I can't go without my diet sprite!)
• How much caffeine - equivalent of less than 1 cup of coffee per day (oooh, so maybe I'll have a little coke zero from time to time)

The best news we got is that we found out her practice is moving so the baby will be delivered at North Central Baptist in Stone Oak! That was a relief because her current office/hospital were not convenient to our house, Eric's work or my new job. We were just sticking with it because I like her so much! So near the end when I'm going to see her weekly - her office will be just a hop, skip and a jump away from work or our house! Yippee!
