In just one week I will have my first appointment with the midwives. I came to the realization yesterday that I have absolutely no idea what to expect. In the past I was given special treatment so to speak since I was with the fertility specialists but this time I have no idea. Will I get an ultrasound? Will I get to hear the heartbeat? Last time with Ezekiel due to all the complications with the hemorrhage by 8 weeks I had already had 9 ultrasounds I believe it was. I decided to call and find out. If there really isn't anything going on is it worth Isaac and Ezekiel coming for an hour. I found out that there is not an ultrasound. They explained they plan on doing that at the second visit since they don't have vaginal ultrasound machines and at 7 weeks that is normally too early to see anything. They offered to write me a script to get one done early but I would have to pay out of pocket for it. I told them that is okay since I now realized that this is the norm. She told me they have a bedside ultrasound machine so that she will gladly try to see something but that at only 7 weeks I can't expect anything to happen or be seen. It's worth trying I suppose we will see how I feel the day of.
I'm not really having any pregnancy symptoms so to speak beyond getting very tired. But nothing a nap or some coffee can't help with. Overall things are seeming good I'm excited for next week. That is about all I have left to post on.
