Entry Four

Today was my first check-up, and of course I had to bring Prussia. He was so excited about the idea of coming to the check-up yesterday that he has been practically bouncing off the walls all day. Well, I'm taking it as a good thing that he's excited about it.

To be perfectly honest, until yesterday I was mute on the fact I had a check-up. Then it finally dawned on me that this will be the first time I hear how my baby's doing. I then began to get a little anxious. I mean, even without reading anything about being pregnant I already figured that this wouldn't be a normal pregnancy. So what if there was something wrong with the baby? What if the baby doesn't have a safe place to grow? What if the pregnancy goes fine but they can't get him or her out? Any single thing could go wrong and end with a disaster.

So while I spent the day worrying about all of that, Prussia spent the time talking about everything that we might find out; the idea that they might hook me up to an ultrasound and we might be lucky enough to see the baby. He has been all smiles and excitement that it's starting to make me feel tired for him. But it's still a good thing; after all, I think some of his excitement for the check-up rubbed off on me, because when we walked into the hospital I was no longer as worried. The baby will be okay, because neither of us would let anything go wrong for him/her.

Shortly after we checked in, I was called back so that they could do some tests. Then about ten minutes later I was led to the room where the rest of the appointment would take place. Another nurse had led Prussia to that room, and we sat there together for several minutes while waiting for the doctor.

I was a little curious about what kind of doctor I had gotten, since my regular one wasn't trained in taking care of unborn people. As it turned out, my new doctor is a normal looking man in his mid thirties called Dr. Martin. He greeted us and then went straight to explaining what he got from the tests; which was not that much. At first all he was able to tell us was that all of the tests came back normal for any pregnant person.

He then asked if we would like to do an ultrasound. To this we agreed and soon moved into the appropriate room and hooked me up to the device. Once attached and running, we all looked at the little screen and saw a mess of blacks and grays. I couldn't make anything out of it, and from the look Prussia was giving the screen I don't think he did either.

Dr. Martin seemed to notice something however and said, "From what this is showing, it looks several of your reproductive organs have swelled into a womb. That's interesting, eh."

I guess that can be considered interesting. It certainly clears up my question about where the child is growing. It was not however what Prussia and I was more interested in looking at.

Prussia then asked Dr. Martin if he saw the kid. To this the doctor said no, but that we shouldn't worry about that. Apparently it just means that the kid is either still too small to see easily or that the baby were simply hiding. I don't think that was the answer that Prussia was looking for, but he tried to act like he wasn't upset.

Shortly after that we made another appointment and went on our way home. I guess I fell asleep during the ride back, because the next thing I knew Prussia was waking me up saying that we were at my house. Seeing that he was correct, I went inside and notice that he was getting several bags from the trunk. How long was I asleep? When I looked at my phone I saw that it had been about an hour since the appointment; guess that clears up that question.

I spent the rest of the day doing some paper work that I had been putting off. Then after dinner I spent some time relaxing with Prussia lounging around with me.
