1st OB appt...
Well, so far so good.... the baby measured normal and the heart rate was good. The u/s machine my OB used is not as "high tech" as the ones my RE had (or a hospital would have), so it wasn't too detailed. That's ok- I just feel good knowing things are progressing normally. We were there for an hour going over my list of questions etc. I love my doctor, he is so cool and seems to have a really great approcah to everything. He made me relax a bit, and we have now decided to tell more people. I will go back in two weeks for a 12 week appt and then every 4 weeks after that. I have to get some initial b/w done sometime between now and my 12 week appt. I think some of it already has been done before IVF, but it's considered a panel... I have lost 10 lbs, from not eating very much at all- being so nauseas. My OB said that the most important thing is getting my fluids, even if I can't eat much. That made me feel better. So, little Shamrock seems to be doing well, and that's all that matters right now!! Can't wait to be done with this 1st trimester- hoping to feel better soon!!!!!! I am so thankful for this blessing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I\'m glad your appt went so well and that Shamrock is doing great! I hope the nausea fades soon so you can begin to feel a bunch better!!!
That must have been a huge relief, to know that everything is going well! I haven\'t had too much nausea yet, but one of my friends had so much nausea in her first trimester that she lost 15 pounds! Her daughter, who is now 9 years old, was perfectly healthy, so I don\'t think it\'s anything to worry about too much. I hope you feel better soon!
