Monthly Check-up

So I went to the doc yesterday for my monthly check-up....everything looks great! Doc was actually able to hear the heartbeat through the dopplar...so cool! He said it was 162...probably another girl!

Felling better...not 100% yet but better!

Will update more later...i am at work and gotta get ready to go!

My little sea creature

So I got ahold of Nic's mom on Tuesday and went in for an ultrasound....I didnt drink quite as much water this time (only a 16 ounce and that was plenty)....Everything looked good and my little blob is measuring exactly 8w 3d...well it will be 9 weeks tomorrow! Could see the little heartbeat and hear it...was so comforting.

Update on how I am feeling....Still craptastical! I feel good when I am eating but other then that I feel yucktastic! I cannot wait for this nauseating/migraine-ish feeling to go away and get back to normal...well not normal but you know!

If at first you dont succeed...try..try...again

So I am going to call Nicole's mom this morning (well text her as I was told) and see if she can get me in for an ultrasound today. Hopefully she can!

I am feeling somewhat better as in, I am not sick ALL day long anymore...its now more at a certain time in the morning and right before bed, which is far better then all day. I hate this part in the pregnancy though where your old clothes dont fit and your maternity stuff is too big or look silly....its rough! I have purchased a couple pair of nice work pants (that are maternity) and they fit me now which means when I am a full blown cow that they probably wont! All t he shirts I have bought are Large and so they are all real big still....guess I need to hit up the clearance rack and find some smaller stuff.

I will update later on the ultrasound situation...

Sadness...

So today my friend at work tells me that her SIL lost her baby at 18 weeks.....so sad! She was going to find out what she was having and they could not find a heartbeat...and tonight she has to actually deliver the baby...honestly, what are your thoughts??? If you were to be 18 weeks along would you want them to just put you out and take the baby or would you want to go through all that pain and suffering to know that there is no light at the end of the tunnel? I, for one, would rather them knock me out and get it over with but I guess thats not protocol. I just feel for her ya know. She tried for so long to have this baby then had to do 4 months of In-vitro and she is now 40...so the chances of that happening again, I would think, would be pretty high.

THEN I went and read that blog about the little baby Cora....what a devastating situation! Those poor parents, I cant even imagine what they are going through right now....What an awful awful thing to happen to their little baby.

I just hope and pray that my little baby (or what looks like a swamp thing in the pic to the right, lol) is ok and they are healthy.

Update

So I was supposed to have an Ultrasound last week with Nicole's mom but she forgot about me and I havent had a chance to call her back to set another one up. Truthfully, I am scared to drink 32 ounces of water again and have her forget me again, lol....I think I peed like 6 times in a matter of a half hour...LOL!

Anyway, I am 7 1/2 weeks today....and I still feel like crud! Ya know when you feel sick and its hard to remember what it feels like to feel better...yeah its like that. I cant imagine waking up one morning and feeling better, but what a miracle that would be! No puking, just that feeling that I want to puke and I have a massive migraine everyday. My neurologist says I can take my midrin still but I take it and when it starts to dissolve, I can taste it in my mouth and that alone makes me want to vomit. So I havent been taking that. I also have Zofran for nausea but that doesnt really help either. So I guess I am screwed.

I DO have an appetite which is good...when I am eating is about the only time I feel better, lol, go figure. Sunday, I was in my car and the "Cheeseburger in Paradise" song came on....all I could think of was how good that sounded, this was the part that kept replaying in my head:

"I like mine with lettuce and tomata, heinz 57 and french fried potata, big dill pickle and a huge draft beer"

Minus the beer part, it sounded deeeeee-licious!I am going to try and be a better blogger, I promise
