Thank you for the information. I think I need to begin strongly requesting things. I had to do that for a blood test because she was just going to go with my HPT results and not check my levels. One of my girlfriends pushed me into being more pushy with them.
My doctor said that she can't see anything on an ultrasound until 7 1/2 weeks so that would be the soonest we could do something. I have a visit on my 8 weeks so 2 weeks from tomorrow so I want to call and make sure they have an ultrasound scheduled.
I think that doctor this site scares me some too about clomid and that is why I ask so many questions. I have heard of plenty of people who seem to do well on it and so I pray I am one of them.
It sounds like all of you are moving a long, almost into your second trimesters. It is so great to hear. These days are really moving a long faster than I expected.
Take Care,
Heather

Hey sorry I had to be quick last night I was at my in-laws house I wanted to tell you that everything went great yesterday. I thought that the dr was going to try the doppler first but he came into the exam rm and said who's up for a sonogram!!!  It was a fun visit!!  The machine that they had there was one of the worst ultasound machines there he said.  The dr, nurse and DH were looking saying there is the head the heartbeat the arms and body and I just kept saying that I didn't see it. Between the bad machine, the lights were on and the angle that I was at I just couldn't see it. I told them if anyone watched Friends. I feel like Racheal!!!!!! They all laughed and the nurse turned the lights out. My gosh what a difference that made. I say the flicker of the heartbeat the baby's head and body and the arms sticking out!!!! It was wonderful. I think it makes it so much better because I love my DR. he's great and makes you feel at ease.
I know that you have an apt tomorrow Monica good luck and let us know all about it!!!!!!!!!!
Heather be firm with the dr. tell him your concerns and how it took you so long to get pregnant that you just want to be extra careful. I hope that you have a good relationship with the DR that makes it easier. Just think your about 1/2 through your first trimester you are right be hind us!!;-)
Well getting late and have to get Paige ready for bed and throw stuff in the dryer and go to bed talk to you tomorrow!!!

Hi Everyone!
My doctor's appointment went very well on yesterday. It was a pretty quick visit, but I DID get to "hear" the baby's heartbeat for the very first time. At first, my doctor wasn't going to try to listen to it because she said that it was probably still a little too early, but after she measured my belly.......she said that my belly was showing that I was at 11 weeks & my uterus was up high; so she pulled out the doppler and found the heartbeat. It was so precious & my husband was elated!!!
Nancy that is awesome that your doctor surprised you with an ultrasound like that!! He must be a really nice doctor; that is wonderful! I have my next ultrasound at 19 weeks, and that is when we will find out the sex of the baby.....YAAYYYY, I can't wait!
Blessings To All,
Monica

Hi Ladies!!!
That is great that you got to hear the baby's heartbeat. It's so amazing!! My dr was telling me they are thinking about getting a 4D ultrasound machine so I am going to hold out until they get it he said hopefully by the end of July I think I get one in August so I will wait for the new machine to have one done. About the sex of the baby I will have the ultrasound tech write it down on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope and give it to my mother she will be the only one to know. I want to be surprised.
Amanda & Heather how are you feeling??
Last night I was so tired I got home from picking up Paige at the babysitter's we ate dinner and I had to lay down I fell asleep about 6:45-7:00 DH woke me up to take my vitamins and meds put on pjs and slept until 5:30 this morning because I had to go to the bathroom. So I feel good right now we will see how the day goes!!
Have a great Friday Ladies!!!!

It is exciting to hear you talk and know I have these things to look forward to in just a few weeks!!
I am so tired. I start to wonder how tired is ok. I stayed home from work yesterday and just slept most of the day. I was too tired to go in. I feel a lot better today and ready to conquer Friday before the weekend. I am usually the type of person that just goes and goes all week long so I am definitly being taught how to relax and let some things go.
I have two step children and I feel so bad not to give them as much attention with my lack of energy. They don't know yet about the pregnancy. We are waiting to tell them when I am 12 weeks along. I think once they know they will understand better but for now they are just not sure.
I too want to do a 4D ultrasound. I hear there is a better time during the pregnancy to do it. I think they closest we have is in Portland which is about an hour and a half away from here but it would be worth it. What a memory.
Happy Friday to everyone!
Take Care,
~Heather

It's weird how tired we get. I have the book what to expect when expecting and in there is says that even when your body is at rest it's like your climbing mountains. My girlfriend laughs all the time she asks how I am feeling besides all the mountain climbing that I am doing. I told her that when she decides to get pregnant that I want her to tell me she is thinking about climbing mountains!!!
Have a great weekend!!!

How do I add a ticker? Where do I put it?
I am excited that my first appointment is on the 21 of June. I only have a week and a half to wait. I hope they do an ultrasound and if they don't I definitly want to request it.
How many weeks do you have between appointments with your doctor?

That's great.
The first appt is long with questions and the paps (like it was an annual apt). My doctor sees me monthly until 32 weeks then you get seen every 2 weeks until 36 weeks then weekly until you deliver.
How is everyone doing?

Happy Monday Everyone!
How is everyone? I am fine.....just tired as usual. I wish that there were some type of an energy pill that I could take, so that I wouldn't be so lethargic......but I guess not...
Nancy, do you feel your baby moving around or fluttering at all? At times, it seems that I can feel mine moving a little......so I was wandering if you were feeling that same sensation in your belly.
Also, my next scheduled appointment is July 5th.
Wow, we will be 15 weeks by then!! How awesome is that......
Well, take care everyone
Monica

Good Morning,
Thanks for the info Nancy. I used the one that Monica had. I could not get the other ones to work but it looked like yours were not showing up at the time either. Not sure if there was a hiccup.
Monica, I think if someone created an energy pill that was safe for pregnant women they would make a fortune. My house is definitly not as clean as I used to keep it and I am so tired at work I can hardly stay awake.
I also wish there was safe allergy medicine for the first trimester. My poor eyes are always so red. We are getting some rain this week so I am hoping that washes away a lot of the pollens.
It is so exciting to see you guys getting so far so fast. It seems like these weeks are starting to go faster now that I am through the inital shock of finally getting pregnant.
Are any of you having morning sickness? I haven't actually been sick but this last few days I have started to feel nauseas. Any good tips besides saltines and ginger ale? Nothing even sounds good to eat.
Take care,
Heather
