Our First Prenatal Visit

I felt like a little kid on the first day of school. "Come on, let's go! We're going to be late!" I've been waiting for this appointment for what seemed like forever. I was just eager to find out that the baby was there with a beating heart.

After filling out a stack full of papers in the waiting room, we were invited into the exam room where the nurse asked more questions and took some vitals. Everything was "normal."

The doctor came in to do the ultrasound. We saw the heart as a little white light that was pulsing. So cool! She looked around and said that everything looked good, including the baby's heart and level of fluid. Praise God! We are so thankful that everything checked out well.

I'm thankful that we also liked our doctor and will plan to stay with her for this pregnancy.

Immediately after we left the exam room, Derek took a photo of our ultrasound picture and emailed it to the family.

Here are the first pics of baby Robinson:
