I have been feeling a lot better since my last post. I think it helped to talk about it with Scott and to just get all my feelings out there. It helped to hear him say that it didn’t matter how I feel while I am pregnant, but what matters is how I feel after the baby is here. And, funny enough since then I have been feeling much better. I have been feeling the baby kick, and I have been feeling much more connected. I saw a mom at the movies nursing a newborn and I just felt all tingly knowing that will be me soon
I had another visit with Becky today and all is well. My weight was 143 1/2 on her scale–which was weird because I was 144 at home this morning with no clothes, and before I had eaten anything….who knows. So I guess so far I have gained about 8 pounds. I am really happy about that! My all my other stats were perfect. Baby’s heart rate was 156 and my uterus was just about to my belly button. And, we scheduled the ultrasound! I am kind of glad we waited to schedule it, because I didn’t have to anticipate it for such a long time. Now I just have to wait 5 days
Scott will be in town so he will be able to go with me too. I am excited about it, even though we won’t find out the sex. I can’t wait to just get a look at the baby and to hear that he/she is healthy! I am going to be sure to tell the ultrasound tech that I don’t want to know the sex of the baby. Someone in my pregnancy buddy group found out accidently during her U/S because the tech didn’t tell her to look away. I do not want that to happen to us!!
