Today's my first appointment at 8 weeks and I'm anxious and worried all the same time! It's my first time pregnant after almost a year of actively trying. I know I shouldn't worry myself over nothing, but right now, I can't help it!

I haven't had any spotting or cramping but I haven't actually thrown-up either. I'm nauseous, but it always seems to go away after eating, and I work from home so I've been good about it. I just need to breathe!

What really makes me nervous is they won't do an ultrasound yet! I live in Sweden and they don't give ultrasounds this early, only bloodwork and whatever it is they do during a 1st appointment. I think I'll ask to get it done anyway, for peace of mind! I hope they allow it - I don't care if we pay out of pocket.

I haven't told anyone yet, so please send positive vibes my way. I'll need them today!
