Just been to the doctor.

Hi everyone,

I just got back from the doctor with my husband.
I'm about 6 weeks pregnant
Seeing the positive tests was amazing, but a doctor's visit makes it feel a bit more real!
A request has been sent to the midwife's practice, and in about 4 weeks, I'll have my first ultrasound.
After that, I'll get a referral to my neurologist.
I'm an epilepsy patient after all, and I've been taking a double dose of folic acid for months, which is extra important for me and my baby.
The medication for my epilepsy increases the risk of congenital anomalies a bit.
Also, I'll need monthly blood tests to keep an eye on my medication levels.
These things are very important, but I'm incredibly happy, and during the Christmas holidays, we're going to share this news with my parents, my mother-in-law, and my husband's grandparents!
