First Doctors Appointment

Baby Swain (sometimes known as Hector) had his first doctor's appointment today! After waiting forever in the waiting room and then another long time while sitting in a gown we were finally seen by Dr. Bathgate. She seems very nice and very informed. She also had a med student with her so they got to do all the fun test (like a pelvic exam etc.) twice....ok so maybe it wasn't so much fun... and I don't think the med student had ever done it before or really knew what he was doing...uncomfortable - oh well its all over now, and the best part is they said that everything looks good and that my uterus feels just the size that its supposed to. So maybe we will get that Halloween baby yet. Our Dr. said that her little girl has an Oct. 31 b-day and loves it - so I am taking that as a good sign.
Another good note - the Dr. so far approves of our long journey to KS and TX this summer! Woohoo so I'm going to get to see everybody while I am good and huge, which will be lots of good fun. Little bitty bikini here I come....lol
Other then that - our next appointment is May 7th and she assured us we would get to hear the heartbeat then. However before that we are going in for a first trimester screening which involves an ultrasound - so I guess we will get to see Hector very very soon.
