I had a 'surprise' u/s this morning because I started having some spotting again over the weekend, that combined with the vanishing symptoms freaked me out enough to call the doc and get another u/s. Thankfully everything is still okay, got to actually HEAR the heartbeat for the first time! Of course DH and I cried. DH joked that we are going to have more pictures of this kid BEFORE it is born than after LOL!!!

One bad thing, though, that I am a little freaked about. I have really bad allergies and the last time I was pregnant I could have sworn that my allergist said it was okay to take Nasocort (a nasal spray), so I have been taking it all along. Last night for some reason I decided to read the detailed insert and it looks like you are NOT supposed to take Nasocort while preggo. Then I asked the nurse this morning and she seemed to think it was something that they usually try to find a replacement drug for, although she is going to double check with the doctor.

So now, of course, I am all freaked that I may have been harming our little bambino for the past 9 weeks!!! ACK!

Great news, the nurse called and said the nasal spray is okay. So I am not going crazy and I did remember correctly that the allergist told me it was okay to continue using it. Whew! I thought I was about to experience my very first "I'm a terrible mommy" espisode - BEFORE the baby even arrived!!! LOL!!

Thanks for all the well wishes :0)
