Yesterday was the first time I have been to the doctor for anything other than strep throat and an infected knee. Needless to say I was scared out of my mind.
Because I had never been to the doctor before they had to do a pap smear (yech!) but other than that the visit was pretty short and relatively painless. The only downside to the doctor I am going to is that they encourage you to see a new doctor every visit, since whoever is the doctor on call when you go into labor is who is going to deliver you. I really liked the doctor yesterday and I really don't want to see anyone else but I also don't want some stranger delivering my baby... so the parade of doctors will began.
Because I am only 7 weeks along (as of today) we couldn't hear the heart beat or anything like that, I don't go back until May 31 but by then we should be able to learn alot more about the baby.
My boss is in panic mode because we were talking today about me being pregnant and he said "So this is probably the first of 9 huh?" and I said "uh ya, maybe". So then he starts going off about how now I will probably be on leave every december for the next 20 years because I will be having babies. He then said even though I am not planning my life anymore that maybe I should a little because he needs to know if I will be working or not. I do feel bad, because I don't want to imposition him or his business, and I really need this job. But its also none of his business how many kids I have or why I have them. Nevertheless he has planted a small nagging thought in the back of my mind "What if he fires me because I am having a baby and will probably have more someday?"
