Happiness is...
hearing your babies heartbeat at your first OB appt! But we'll get to that later...
This Dr. is only about 3 yrs old than me...at most! Its his first year out of residency, but he is apparently this great doctor with great bedside manner who likes to be able to deliver his own babies, therefor only takes so many patients a month so he can be there for each delivery. He wants you to get to know him and him to know you as much as possible...blah blah blah!
Well...everything I just said is right! he's great!
One problem though...he looks almost exactly like Ty on Trading spaces! lol
I think its Ty...I don't have cable...but the one who has the funky hair who also does Extreme Home Makeover. Is that Ty? He's a Ty look-alike!
He's funny, caring, and already I can tell he is going to pay extra attention due to my previous pregnancy complications and Logan's cyst.
I seriously don't think I could be more happy with him.
The question is though, am I going to be able to be completely open and honest about problems like hemroids and yeast infections? Its just something about talking to a guy...ANY age...about hemroids! haha!
So, at the end, he said they really don't like to checkfor the heartbeat until after 12 weeks just to not add extra stress if they can't find it.
I told him that I promised I wouldn't be stressed...(Big fat old lie!)...and so he tried!
After only about 10 seconds I heard the wonderful sound! Heartrate in the 160's!
I was SO estatic!!
Then, he told me he thinks I have a fibroid and that it is pretty obvious in feeling it at the top of my uterus. I'm coming back in 2 weeks for a pap and to feel my uterus again. If its still that feeling, I'll go for an u/s.
Hmmm...something else to stress about! Anyone ever have a fibroid DURING pregnancy?
So, all in all I am extremely happy with my OB, my experience...and my sweet little heartbeat!!!!!

Yay!!! That's great news!! Not only did you hear the wonderful heartbeat, but I'm glad that you like you're doc, too! And yes, that's Ty, and he's a hottie!!
My SIL had a fibroid during her first pregnancy, and it didn't make any differnece. They will want to watch to see if it grows, because I think that if it gets too big that it can be a problem, but most fibroids are no big deal as far as I know.
