Oh yeah, Bud's new due date!

I forgot in all the rage to share that Bud has a new due date. According to the Dr., Bud should be arriving Dec. 31st! Two days earlier than the orginial due date given.
When Bud arrives is less important that a health arrival but I know Ray wants to have the New Year's baby so we'll see. I think he'll arrive just in time to be our 8-year wedding aniversery gift, which would be Dec. 28th. Or better yet, Bud could share his daddy's birthday, which is Dec. 29th!
I know there are months and months in between here and there but it is fun to speculate!

Dr. Disappointment

Well I had my first prenatal visit yesterday. According to everything I read, it should have been the longest visit ever to my Ob/Gyn, I have to say, if that was the longest I would hate to see all of my follow-up. They only scheduled 30mins! Hello, I'm a scared 1st time mom, I have tons of questions. The doctor seems irritated that I even had questions. I know I made him run late. They struggled to take my blood and then I preceded to pass-out after the blood was draw. this takes time. I know that was something they didn't plan for. (Like I did!) But in general I was just disappointed with the whole thing. I think I'm going to give the Raliegh Birth Center a call. I'm not cool with being treated like a number. This is my child and while I believe I could have a prefectly fine birth with the doctor I saw yesterday, I think I deserve better.

Sickness, morning, noon, and night

The morning sickness has started. Only it's not only in the morning, it's alike anytime of the day. Sometimes I'll feel great all day and then suddenly trying to relax at home after work I get so nauseous! I've been lucky so far. I haven't actually vomited yet. The nauseousness is bad! Sometime I think if I did vomit I would feel better but so far nothing.
I go to the doctor tomorrow! I'm excited, I'm nervous, I'm scared and I'm hopeful. Will post a post-doc blog tomorrow!
