Endoscopic Ultrasound

Alright cruising along...day four? Yeah ok so today I am going to talk a little about my day. But lets stick to the reason for the blog and then move on to me. Today I found out that our week count is every Thursday. So today is the end of week four. So I posted a picture that I found on the internets of a four week old embryo. Tomorrow I'm going to cheat and post the week five embryo. Ok so today....um in the land of babies. Well I did start The Expectant Father(the other book). I has a lot to say and focuses on being prepared for whats going to happen. I really like the fact it gives an idea of the questions to ask. Some meals to prepare, and pregnancy nutrition facts...which I can say so far hasn't been in the book(Your pregnancy week to week). So I like my book better at least for now. Alright so Sarah and I talked about the pregnancy and the doctor, and the hospital and that sorta thing. Well we decided on Lawrence and Memorial Hospital because she works there and is comfortable with the maternity area. I just ok. What do I know....I know when to agree. Really what it boils down to is that she has to be the one comfortable, so I'm ok with relinquishing that to her. I realized that there is so little I can actually do. Just support her in all that I can. So right now I'm trying to anticipate where I can help and do everything I can.

Ok so this morning Sarah and I woke up and dressed and took a trip to Yale New Haven hospital about an hours drive away. Turns out they have valet parking. So we pull up and this guy comes to the window and says...here you go and hands me a ticket and says "Give that to your mom and make sure she gets it validated." So I wasn't sure I heard what he said and Sarah and I start heading into the hospital...and she asks.."did he tell you to give that to your mom?" Sure did mom...here ya go......WTF? It was funny because I wasn't sure thats what I heard but she confirmed it for me. How old do I look? Better yet how old does she look. I think he may have figured it out on his own and I can't begin to imagine how big an ass he felt. So the procedure sucked and as much as I want to complain about it, I can only imagine the things that Preggers is going to go through and the tests she will endure and they will shadow over my little endoscopy. So no real results and now a CT scan..in the future. Thats about it. I'll keep you all posted for more of that.

At a friends request I decided to change the background as I'm told black background with white letters is hard on the eyes....I liked it. But I'll do what I can for my readers. Well all I'll be signing off for now. Tomorrow holds another day.

Concerns:
1. I have to keep healthy so that I can help Preggers out...after todays procedure she was taking care of me..I felt a little guilty.
2. What happens if she miscarries?
