October 17 finally came...those were the longest 9 weeks ever. It's weird to know you are pregnant but not have "official" confirmation or know that everything is ok with the baby. Kip and I went to the doctor that morning at 8 a.m. I am not sure why I decided to schedule the appointment at that time since I had a huge event at work the night before and didn't get home until very late. But, I got up and met Kip at the doctor's office after he got off from work. I was so nervous, the nurse even commented about how high my heart rate was. They did a pregnancy test and Dr. Cobb walked in the room and said "congratulations!" Kip was so funny, his reaction was "so that means it's true?" She said yes, that's what the test said!
We weren't really sure what would be done at the first appointment. We thought they may wait to do a sonogram or any additional tests but we were wrong. They did a lot of blood work and a sonogram! We thought it would be too early to see much and normally I can't make out other people's sonogram pictures but our little bean was so clear on the screen! We could see arms and legs and Dr. Cobb said the baby was waving at us. It was AMAZING! I (of course) started crying but tried to pretend I wasn't. Kip asked a lot of questions because I was just staring at the screen. We saw the little heart beating and it was official...there is a baby!!!
