Week 10

Week 10 was exciting all around! To start off, July 8 was our 3 year anniversary. This anniversary was especially special because we got to celebrate our family expanding. July 9 was my first appointment with my regular ob-gyn! I was so excited to go to this appointment. The entire appointment got my excitement level through the roof, as all appointments usually do. To begin, filling in the nurse on my information was exciting. Last time I was in that office, I was explaining how I was struggling with infertility. So being in that same office, telling the nurse about IVF and my due date, felt like I conquered one of my biggest battles.

Next Dr. Yeum came in! My ultrasound was extra special because I got to see Baby Vincent moving all around!! I read that the baby was using its muscles this week (which made Bryan very happy) but it was so exciting to actually see it happening! The baby looked healthy and right on schedule! Afterwards, Dr. Yeum gave me a lot of things to bring home including a pre-registration packet for St. Barnabus hosptial to deliver! Although it is a far time away, it got me excited to start preparing. Hearing my next steps also got me happy and anxious. Dr. Yeum said that the NJ Prenatal Associates would be contacting me for a 12-week screening appointment. This appointment will be my first over the belly ultrasound!!!!!! Although its exciting, its scary because it tests for Down Syndrome. I am praying that all comes back ok.

The morning after my appointment, I got my phone call to make my 12 week screening appointment. Thursday, July 17 at 12:30. Directions to drink 16 oz were given (which is always not the easiest). I am very excited to see our baby again and pray all is ok!
