First OB appt Wednesday

Well, I am 40, and this is my third pregnancy (healthy daughter, almost 7 years old; angel baby on 12/5/2010, and now this baby, due 12/7/2010/)  I have my first appointment on Wednesday, and from my calculations, I should be 9 weeks on that day.  I am so nervous, as we never saw the heartbeat on our angel baby (lost it in the 10th week), so looking forward to Wednesday, yet almost scared.  I know I need to be positive, but it is very hard.  It never seems like my fiance and I have good luck, so that's why I get so worked up.  And I know that's not good for the baby.  My daughter is so excited about being a big sister--she thinks we are having a boy (she guessed a girl on the last one, but obviously we never knew.)

Wish me luck!

The appointment went well.  I'm 9 weeks, due 12/9/2011 and get to schedule my ultrasound for next week.  So excited and hope that things continue to go well.  And I didn't weigh as much as I thought!
