First Ultrasound Coming Up...Nervous.

I am scheduled to go for my first ultrasound on Monday. I am both excited and nervous all at the same time. I am soooo excited to hear the baby's heartbeat, but scared at the same time in case I don't hear it, you know? The sucky thing is that Joe can't be there, as even though he tried every possible option, he still can't get the time off work. Apparently a lot of guys are off that day already since they had it booked because of the long weekend, and FedEx can't afford to be down yet another guy. He's really upset about it, as am I, but there really is no way around it. Luckily for me, my mom is able to come, so at least I don't have to go all alone. I hope I will be able to get a picture or something to bring home for Joe. I feel so bad for him since this is just as big for him as it is for me!
