First OB appt

I had my first appointment at the doctor's office, just to meet the nurse and fill out paperwork. Some things she told me to remember... no lifting over 25 pounds, no sushi, cramping is totally
normal, keep heartrate below 140 if excercising. I'm 1/2" shorter than I was 2 years ago and I haven't gained any weight —yet.

I met with my superviser today to give him my proposal for a flexible work schedule. He was very encouraging, but we stand up to many challenges with the other people in the department and upper management. I'm not to hopeful.

Well, I've done my first hugely bonehead-preggers-brain dead thing. This is a funny story...
At work today, there was an issue with a photo a school had sent in for their cover. In a nut shell, I was trying to explain to a consultant what the problem was by email, using a "screenshot" of the cover to illustrate my point. I dragged the screenshot from my desktop to the email and sent it. The consultant came to my office just a few minutes laster and I asked if he received it. He said yes, but I don't know what it is. I kept asking about the photo details, etc. He finally asked me to bring up what I sent to him. When I pulled up the sent email —I was mortified. There, staring back at me, was an illustration of a 3 1/2 week old fetus - the screenshot I had taken earlier on my break to show your daddy. I apologized all over myself, without really explaining why he received that. I pulled up the cover an he said, "yeah, send that one to me." I was so embarrassed. I explained to him later, in the correct email that I had been working so fast I pulled off the older image before teh new screenshot had saved to the desktop. Totally true.

Yikes, I hope stuff like that won't be happening all the time! Kim laughed so hard she was crying. And Daddy thinks I'm funny. I think I'm going crazy!
