I've been trying to find an OBGYN today so that I can begin my prenatal care, and it has proven to be more difficult than imagined. It's not as easy as calling up the hospital and making an appointment. I guess the hospital refers me to some Drs. and I then proceed to call those Drs. to make an appointment, whose offices are not located at the hospital I want to give birth at. I guess I am a little confused. I'm not sure if I even want an OBGYN. I was sure I wanted a midwife. I am just curious as to how the midwife handles prenatal care as opposed to an OBGYN. I feel like I am being transferred to different people and no one is giving me clear answers. Not sure what to do from here.
At 9 weeks and 4 days, not much is changing with the baby these past few days. Although it is growing rapidly! It's now considered a fetus and not an embryo! And it's about the size of a green olive! If I went to the Dr. today, I would be able to hear it's fast heart beat! The baby's reproductive organs are starting to form, but we won't be able to distinguish it for a while! Bummer!
Headaches have been a slight problem. I try to drink tons of water in order to help. I'm still exhausted and motivation is at its lowest! Thank goodness it's Spring Break! Time to lay out!
The nursery looks great!I hope that I get to help with the fine tuning once we know what that little one is. Maybe on the way home from the Tetons, huh?
