12 Week Appointment

I had my 12 week appointment at the OB clinic on post this morning. They were able to find Blasto's heartbeat with the doppler after a few minutes of looking. The heartbeat was a nice, strong 140 beats/minute. The only area of concern was my blood pressure. It had been a little elevated at my first appointment and was also elevated this morning. They sent me to the lab for some blood work, and they're going to have me check it periodically between now and my next appointment. I'm hoping being at the hospital just stresses me out a bit, and that it goes back down on it's own. I've never had blood pressure issues before, so it kind of surprised me. Fun stuff!
