Well, I had my 14 week appointment with the doctor yesterday. Everything looks good at this point. Baby's heart rate was at about 140 beats per minute, which is great. I was excited to hear the baby. It's always such an awe inspiring experience.
As far as how I'm feeling, I'm doing okay most days. Morning sickness hit me late in this pregnancy. Prior to 12 weeks, I was mostly just nauseous all the time, not really getting sick much. After that 12 week mark, baby decided to be finicky with what I could and could not eat (and when I could eat, and how much I could eat). Hopefully that will pass soon. I actually lost 2 lbs. from my first doctor's appointment so that brings my total pregnancy weight gain to +1 lb. That's good for me though. I have lots of "food storage" for the baby. Hopefully he or she will take advantage of it.
Another good thing happened at the doctor as well. I got to schedule my ultrasound appointment. It's the "big" one where we'll find out if we're having a girl or a boy. It's scheduled for mid-June, so I'll keep you posted!
As far as everything else in the pregnancy, things seem to be going well. I'm just having to slow down a bit on some days. Ethan is kind of getting it now. I asked him where the baby was yesterday and he said it was in my tummy. I guess we're making progress. The last time I asked, he said it was in my toe. He has such a silly sense of humor.
I'm excited to be this far along in my pregnancy. I'm surprised that I have my ultrasound in just four weeks! That's so crazy that we're already almost halfway!
Until next time...
