So I went for my 2nd Doctor's visit today after work. This visit is after our first ultrasound...the one where we found out we were only 6 weeks and not 8. Anyways we finally have an official due date!!!!
MAY 6, 2011
And I'm only actually 7 weeks as of TOMORROW.
Ed and I were given 'homework' at our first visit which was to think about what we want in terms of prenatal care and birth choices. We've decided to see a maternity clinic rather than an OB since my Doctor told us that it would be no difference for me because I'm totally considered a low risk pregnancy. Also our Doctor told us that he has been told by past patients that the clinic doctors are more personable and relatable than OB's. For birth choices we are choosing to give birth the traditional way in a hospital. Royal Columbian Hospital is the only hospital in our area that do deliveries so we will be going there...plus I was delivered there too almost 29 years ago!!! We think it'd be cool that my baby and I would be delivered in the same hospital.
So now the official countdown begins!!!! 33 more weeks to go starting tomorrow!!!!!
awesome! what mat clinic have you gone with? i went to the one in newport with both the girls and they were amazing!! i love the drs and receptionists there. <3
ReplyDeleteand RCH is an amazing hospital to give birth in. they have one of the best nicu's in the region besides Children's and all the specialists are there which was very calming for me, since i was paranoid about my delivery!
Yes the one in Port Moody is where we'll be going!!!!! I'm glad to hear you loved it!!!! I can't wait to go!!!
ReplyDeleteYAH!!!!! :D

ReplyDeleteYou're pregnant! I am so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteThere was awhile that I couldn't get onto your blog. Blogger kept telling me it was a private blog and that I couldn't view it. I was sad, thinking you had blocked me for some reason. It must have just been a mistake.
Anyway, here I am now, catching up, and I'm thrilled that you're having a baby!
Jamie I had made it private for a while because I didn't want to find out I was pregnant and post on here and have people in my life seeing it before I announced it officially! My blog followers are VIP HAHA I thought I had added you!!! Sorry! It's open to the public again since it's all announced!!! Thanks for reading and we're SOOO excited!!!
