My new doctor

I found an english speaking OB and she is great so far. She looks kind of like Marie Curie. Very much like a scientist...plain Jane.
From Blog
Basically she looks like she knows what she is doing. I made my appointment at 12, but didn't actually get seen until almost 1. I'm not sure if that is normal here or not, but I was slighlty irked only because I had maniac child with me. But, c'est la vie.

The lateness was made up when I was told I get an ultra sound on my first visit! Back home they don't even schedule an appt until you are about 8-9 weeks along. And ultra sounds aren't a part of every visit. It's interesting because the doctor deals with me directly. I wasn't screened or seen by a nurse at all. The doctor did everything. And then when it was the doctor who called me to schedule my next appointmnet. I get to go again on Monday and get another ultra sound! Hopefully this time we will be able to see something and figure out a due date. I'm thinking end of May, early June. I've heard so many good things about German hospitals, so hopefully it is all true! Except epidurals. I've heard they aren't big on that here....oh gawd. Hopefully that is not true!!!
