Hi everyone! I had my 10 week apt today :) I am so happy. We saw the little baby moving around, also got to hear the heartbeat for the first time! I posted a picture. The OB couldn't see any signs of a subchorionic hemorrhage! Yay! I did get 7 tubes of blood drawn, and a urine sample. I don't go back now for 6 weeks. They also did a UA I'm slightly concerned with my protein levels (30); I did also come up in the highest range of dehydration. :( But I'm working on it. Hope everyone is doing wonderful!

I'm glad to hear your appointment went well! I think the dehydration is a trend for first trimester moms. When I went in they had to stick me 4 times for blood work because I was so dehydrated that day. Feel better!
