I first found out I was pregnant on June 6th but couldn't believe it. I took another pregnancy test the next day then I went to the clinic for a pregnancy test there. After that the doctor was going to send me to get blood work done just so I could be 100% sure but I didn't end up going. I made an appointment with a nurse at the health unit. Before my second appointment I decided I should tell my mom so she could be there with me. It was really the most scary thing I've ever had to do but afterwards I had Tim there by my side which really made a difference. My mom told my dad the next day and he was actually really calm about it. My mom came with me to my next doctors appointment, she ended up asking more questions than I did and shes now in love with the nurse from the health unit. After that visit we didn't go back to the health unit my mom looked into getting me midwives which I LOVE. My first appointment there was mostly just information given and we tried to hear the baby's heart which we couldn't find so early. On July 23rd I had my first ultrasound but because I wasn't 12 weeks yet they wouldn't let me see anything and they wouldn't tell me anything, it was pretty disappointing. The same day I had a midwife appointment because I needed to get a pap test done. Before my pap test was done they checked for the heartbeat again and it was just perfect http://youtube.com/watch?v=MvVqUBeWZCk - my mom videotaped it and I put it on youtube so my family could hear it. On the 24th my midwives called me to tell me that they had the results of my ultrasound and everything was perfect AND there was only 1 baby in there so I was very pleased. I'll be 12 weeks as of the 26th and I'm loving how fast the time is going. I can't wait to hold my baby

shirls - Monday, 21 April My doctors were somewhat fine with me getting pregnant again after my c-section. It wasn't too close togther I got pregnant again when my son was 11 months old, so they will be 20 months apart, when #2 is born. They just wanted to make sure that I was healthy, and the baby and the uterus were in good shape. Everything is going well so far, and we're all planning on a VBAC. I'm excited but nervous too.
