Well I had my first doctor's appointment a few hours ago - it wasn't really as bad as I expected. They did have to draw some blood, which I never enjoy, but that wasn't even horrible - the lady did a great job and was really fast!
We finally got to hear our Little One's heartbeat - a solid and strong 164 bpm (sounded like a boy to me)! The doctor said everything looked and sounded great and that we should expect a healthy pregnancy from here on out! It was very exciting and VERY strange to hear the heart beating - mostly because it still doesn't seem real that there is actually a tiny little person growing inside of me... it's all very very bizarre and surreal... I suppose it won't really feel real until I'm actually holding Baby for the first time!
Funny thing though - they ask all of these questions on your first appointment, and when they got to the "do you want an epidural" and I said "no", the nurse's head shot up in disbelief - "Really? Are you serious??" She was shocked, and I laughed nervously... I'm going to try to go au naturale, but I won't be disappointed or bummed out if I do end up resorting to pain relief... so I'm planning on no meds, but I may end up signing the paperwork for them, just in case! ;)
It was quite an exciting morning, and now I'm ready for a nap!

Holding the little one in your hands will feel real, however just wait until you start getting kicks. :)
Hearing the heartbeat is so weird and amazing at the same time. The ultrasound will be even better!
