The First of Many

It's confirmed: I'm pregnant. What should have been a quick 15 minute appointment stretched into 1 1/2 hours as my doctor got called across the street to deliver a baby. Brenna was not amused. Doug took her walking through the halls where she found a box to push and she demonstrated her dance moves for anyone who would watch.
Because of my "advanced" age (35) we had to go through all the possible things that could go wrong, mostly genetic problems because my eggs are so "old". The numbers are scary; definately more of a chance of problems than I thought.
But so far, so good. I'm measuring correctly for 8-9 weeks. I go back in 2 weeks for an ultrasound and lab work to begin the extra precautions. Better safe, I guess.
