We've gone public

Yesterday was my first ultrasound. Not much to see other than that the baby was there! Everything looks good so far, and I go back in about a week for another ultrasound just to monitor development. I'm almost 100% sure that I'm going to use my OB close to home. I was conflicted on that, but I do think it would be easier for my husband if the appointments are closer to home and for the delivery to not be two hours away!

Anyway, Phil couldn't make it to the ultrasound yesterday. He had an allergy attack, so I left him at home, had the ultrasound and then went to work. I showed him the ultrasound once I got home, and he was so excited. I found out later he had already told his sister, and so he thought it was okay for us to tell my family. I called my mom, my sister, my aunt, and my uncle. Then we posted the ultrasound on myspace and facebook, and today, I'm making individual announcements to people at work.

The doctor did tell me that most of my cramping is probably related to dehydration, and I need to drink more water. So, I have a water bottle with me today. It's hard to get used to drinking that much water, but I'm going to do my best!
