Since our prenatal appointment, it feels like I’m just waiting. Waiting for something…to feel more pregnant, to get more symptoms, to look like I’m expecting, to go to my next ultrasound. The period of time between seeing the baby for the first time and seeing the baby for the second time seems interminable. Our next ultrasound is not until our NT scan at 12.5 weeks, which is 6 weeks since we saw the baby the first time. Because we had our first ultrasound so early, I was able to put my initial fears to rest regarding actually being pregnant. Now that one worry is over, I’m concerned about whether the baby is developing properly and if everything is okay. I’m pretty sure that’s what being a mother is all about, though: worrying about your child from the moment of conception until the day you die.
