We are still waiting to feel this baby move!! I have not felt any movement yet, that I'm aware of. I think we are both overly excited for that.

How far along: 9 weeks Size of baby: Size of a grape Maternity Clothes: Not yet, although things are getting tight.

The office is small but the staff is friendly and Dr. Streib is better than anyone I could have imagined so far. The first visit was pretty easy. We were given a wealth of information on what to expect, how to get to the maternity section of our local hospital, what kinds of medications I can and can't have. Anything you want to know about having a baby...you get at you...
