Okay, I know I said I would keep everyone updated through this blogger site but what can I say, I live a busy life! Last time I blogged I was yet to have my first prenatal visit. Well, I had the first on Sept. 9th and the baby and I were just great. The ultrasound revealed a teeny tiny beating heart and Audie and I were both feeling very blessed. THEN, as Dr. Simpson is looking around she says, "oh wait a minute, what's that?". Audie and I look at each other like deer in headlights. Dr. Simpson then says, "I just want to be sure that it's not another one". The seconds felt like minutes and the minutes like hours as she continues to look at the suspicious "spot" on the u/s. "Oh, it's just some debris", she says. Wow, I cannot begin to make you understand how many things were running through my head in just the few moments that it took to determine that I was carrying a little extra "debris".
So now on to appointment #2 on October 14th. Once again everything went great. We were able to hear the heartbeat for the first time which is always really exciting. Other than that it was pretty non-eventful. The typical vital signs, pee in a cup, weight....etc. If you've had a child you know how that can be. You wait for 1 1/2 hrs so they can say, "see ya in 4 weeks". I'm a pretty boring pregnant person and very thankful for that. So, I'm now 14 weeks and 2 days and have gained a whopping 2 pounds....thanks to baked potatoes and cereal, which I've now moved on from. My appetite has increased tremendously in the past week which makes me a little nervous. I could do without a repeat of what I looked like when I had Payton. I was pregnant with Payton through the holidays and all that delicious food (I'm a sucker for pumpkin cheesecake which is being served everywhere right now)just packed on the pounds. So with the holiday season right around the corner.... wheeeewwww! Lookout Weight Watchers, here I come in about 5 1/2 months!
