Chapter 44: First Checkup
"So who all knows your pregnant?" Richard asks.
"Just you, Rachel, and Gar", I say.
"Gar?" Richard asks, "How did he find out?" Richard asks.
"He was home at the time when I took the pregnancy test at Rachel's house", I say.
"Oh how did he react?" Richard asks.
"At first he fainted because he thought Raven was pregnant but now he is excited about being an uncle", I say.
Richard laughs, "Typical Gar", he says, "Are you ready yet?" he asks.
"Almost", I say and slip on a pair of flats, "Ok let's go", I say.
Today was my first appointment with my OBGYN doctor, I was a little nervous yet excited.
"Nervous?" Richard asks as he drives to the doctor's office.
"A little", I say.
"Me too", he says and reaches for my hand and kisses the back of it.
We reach the doctor's office, Richard parks the car and we head inside.
"Hello, how can I help you?" the receptionist greets me.
"Hi, Kori Grayson for Doctor Brown", I say.
The receptionist pulls out a clipboard, "Please fill out these forms then turn it in the front desk", she says and hands me a clipboard with the forms.
"Ok thanks", I say and sit in the lobby next to Richard.
I fill out the forms and hand them to the receptionist and sit down next to Richard.
"What do you think they're going to do?" He asks.
"Probably some test, I just hope we finally get to see our baby", I say.
"Kori Grayson", a voice calls. Richard and get up and walk over to the doctor holding the door open.
"Hi, I'm Doctor Brown", she says and shakes my hand and gives me a warm smile.
I smile back, "Hi I'm Kori Anders and this is my husband Richard Grayson", I say.
"Nice to meet you", Richard says and shakes her hand.
She then leads us to an exam room; I sit on the examination table and Richard sits in the chair beside me.
"You seem nervous", Doctor Brown says.
"I am and anxious plus tired", I say.
"It's all a part of pregnancy, fatigue, morning sickness, have you also been experiencing mood swings?" she asks.
"No more than usual", Richard mutters and I swat his arm and frown.
"Pure muscle babe", he says kisses his bicep and flexes, I roll my eyes and pinch him; "Ow!" he yells and rubs his arm. I smile victoriously and turn my attention back to the doctor.
"I've had a lot of morning sickness lately", I say, "I think it's because of the pregnancy and because I am a little nervous about the pregnancy and stuff", I say.
She laughs, "You have nothing to worry about, we are just going to run a couple of test and I can answer any questions you have", she says.
The doctor starts asking me about my past medical history, family medical history, eating habits and the usual doctor questions. She then does a physical exam, after the exam, I take a blood test along with a genetic test and a bunch of others. After we are done I finally can go back to the exam room where Richard is waiting.
"Do you have any questions?" she asks.
"Tons, when's my due date? Do I have to take prenatal vitamins? Is there any cure for morning sickness? ", I ask.
"Wow that's a lot of questions", Doctor Brown says and laughs.
She answers all my questions and gives me specific instructions about my pregnancy, I start to feel more relieved and ready.
"I have one last question, would we be able to have an ultrasound today?" I ask after my blood test since eager to see my baby.
"Yes, you're about 8 weeks pregnant so we can have do a transvaginal ultrasound today", Doctor Brown says.
"Umm ok, will it hurt?" I ask.
"You may feel a little pressure but no, it doesn't hurt", Doctor Brown says.
"Ok, I'll do it", I say since I am eager to see my baby.
We go to the exam room and Doctor Brown gives me specific instructions, after I am positioned on the table with the want in place, I glance at the screen in anticipation. Richard reaches for my hand; I glance at his face and see that he is anxious too.
"There's you baby", she says.
I glance at the screen and see a little circular shape on the tiny screen.
"That's our baby", Richard says in awe and smiles.
"Look! I see the baby head!" I yell happily and smile as Richard and I laugh and he kisses my forehead, I smile and gaze and the screen blissfully as I see the first glimpse of the new addition to our family.
After the sonogram the doctors gives me all the information, and advice about my pregnancy. All the information about prenatal vitamins, when to schedule upcoming appointments, and what to expect in my pregnancy was a bit overwhelming but I listen intently. Richard and I leave the appointment and decide to get something to eat.
"It just hit me, where going to be parents", Richard says, "Seeing the baby today really put it in perspective", he says. As we sit down and eat at the restaurant.
"I know what you mean", I say and glance at the sonogram again.
"Give me a copy I want one for my wallet", he says.
I smile and hand him one of the smaller copies, "I should put proud dad on the bottom of the picture", I say and Richard laughs.
"Do you think it's a boy or girl?" I ask.
"Boy", he says, "His name is going to be Richard Grayson Jr.", he says.
I laugh, "We haven't even started talking about names yet! And it could be a girl", I say.
"You think it's a girl?" he asks.
"Yep", I say, "A mother can sense these things", I say.
"I guess we will find out soon enough", Richard says.
"I can't wait", I say.
"Me too", Richard says, "Listen there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about", Richard says.
"Ok", I say and shift nervously in my seat.
"I've been thinking that, we should start looking for a house", he says.
"A house?" I say surprised.
"Think about it with our family is growing and the apartment is great but I think it's time for us to start looking for a real home, we can build a house, remodel one, whatever you want", he says as tears fall from the corner of my eyes.
"Oh gosh what did I say?" Richard asks concerned "Please don't cry, I didn't mean to upset you", he says.
"I'm not upset", I say and sniff, "I'm just so happy", I say.
Richard breathes a sigh of relief, "And the mood swings begin", Richard says and shakes his head and I can't help but laugh.
"There's one thing we're going to have to do first", I say.
"What's that?" Richard says.
"Tell our parents", I say and suddenly feel like a teenager in high school again.
"Great", Richard says and I know he feels the same way as I do now.
