First Prenatal Visit

First Prenatal visit was had on June 23rd, 2011. The visit took forever but I suppose it was just a very busy day at that office. The first thing we did was the ultrasound. It was hard to believe it so I was quiet during the ultrasound. There it was, this little peanut looking or jellybean thing with a heartbeat. Very alien looking in the early weeks. Its heartbeat was 162 and it was healthy looking so far. I still haven't gone for the blood work yet but, that's because I have to go to Lab Corp which isn't open during lunch, or afternoon. Go figure. I guessed just about exactly the date when I'd be due. My guess was February 12 and that I was between 7-8 weeks along. The ultrasound revealed 7 weeks and a due date of February 7, 2012.


The number one thing on my mind is where we are all going to live. I rent a room at my mother's friends house and I used to have two rooms but my cousin moved in. I do not get along with my cousin and he doesn't even work. But, he won't leave. I have asked him many times if he can just go move back in with his mother or grandmother. He enjoys not being told to find a job or do any house work. All he does is sit in his room and play video games and my 'friend/landlord' doesn't care. This has been the most stressful part of this so far. I feel like even though I want this baby more than anything in the world, I am going to have to live in the ghetto to support it. My fiance isn't the biggest amount of help. He doesn't work enough to be able to help me support the bills. I love him but I have a feeling if he doesn't find himself to be a little more successful he'll be out the door too. I was raised by a single mother so I am not afraid of that life.
