Thing's gotten big in just a few weeks.

This week the thing in my uterus is the size of a kumquat, which is just fun to say. Now the thing has fingernails and is kicking.

I went to my first OB/GYN appointment this week. I just met with the nurse to do the medical history stuff. I also did lab work to make sure I’m not a drug addict. I’m awaiting the results because I’ve always wondered about that – can you be addicted to crack without partaking in said substance? Hmm, something to ponder.

Anyways, next week I have my first doctor’s appointment. I hate doctors, especially those with penises who have no business messing with my undercarriage. Fortunately, I found an all-female practice which calms me significantly. At this upcoming appointment, I’ll get to hear the heartbeat via some Doppler device and if the doctor suspects twins, which I’m predisposed to, she may do the first ultrasound. We’ll see!
