Meeting Bebe

And now it's all so real.  Today was our first doctor's appointment, it felt like an eternity for our appointment to finally get here.  It kind of was.  I scheduled the appointment on April 28, it was originally scheduled for June 1, and then it was rescheduled for June 15! But the day finally arrived and we are happy to announce that everything appears normal, Thank GOD.  Marco was able to go with me to our first appointment after arranging his work schedule, and we both had an enjoyable experience.  We first met with the doctor in his office and he asked us lots of questions, and we asked him some questions.  Today I am 11 weeks and 4 days along and the Doctor has determined that our due date is JANUARY 1, 2012!! He also prescribed me some medication to control my nauseousness and morning sickness because although in the beginning I was feeling good, somewhere along the way morning sickness began to kick my butt.

Anyway, moving along to more fun things, we had a sonogram done and we got to see our baby for the first time.  It was AMAZING.  He/She was moving around so much!! The doctor said he/she is a happy baby and that's why he/she's moving so much.  It all became so real, I REALLY am pregnant! God has blessed us with the ability to develop someone in my body created by Marco and Me. We were both very emotional and of course I cried. What a BLESSING!!

Meet our Bebe.  His/Her little head is to the left. I know it's hard to see.

Of course bebe is too little still and we can't tell if it's a he or she, but it looks like it's going to be one active baby.  I should start to feel him/her move in a few weeks. Hopefully, the next time we go to the doctor we'll be able to determine the gender.
