Everything is continuing to go well! I've been too exhausted to write anything on my blog lately. All I want to do is sleep. I have never been so exhausted in my entire life! Last week I was actually feeling pretty good. The queasiness and exhaustion abated a bit and I got some relief. No such luck this week. My nurse said it was normal for symptoms to come and go, but I was hoping when they went that they wouldn't be back!

My first OB appointment in on Thursday when I will be 10 weeks. I don't know if I'll have an ultrasound or not. I certainly hope so! The nurse said the dr. will look for the heartbeat with the doppler and if he doesn't find it, he'll do an u/s. I'm thinking that 10 weeks is a bit early for the doppler, so we'll see.

It's so scary to go a couple of weeks without an ultrasound and wonder what is going on in there. I feel confident that everything is going as it should, but I'm still terrified. I wonder if I'll ever be able to relax and enjoy the process. Probably not, but each passing week makes me feel a little better.

Glad to hear an update! I worried some throughout the entire pregnancy, but I was able to pretty much relax and enjoy it starting around the 2nd tri. The wait between appointments at the beginning is so hard because you can't feel the baby. I rented a doppler for a few months and that gave me peace of mind whenever I needed it! Hope your able to get another peak at that sweet baby ;)

It must be hard to not worry! Whenever I was worried Craig always told me that feeling tired and sick was the best sign that everything was going well. *sigh* At least it made the yucky feeling a little easier to bear:) I hope Thursday goes well.
