I had another visit with my ob/gyn this week. Things are still going along nicely. It was good to see her again after last week's scare. We got to hear out little ones heartbeat again. There is nothing better than hearing that. It is a good strong heartbeat too! I am in the last week of my first trimester and finally starting to feel better. The nausea is almost completly gone and only gets bad if I do not eat. I do not have an appetite and am not craving anything but I am sure that will change shortly. So far I have lost 4 pounds and I have not started to gain it back. I am completly ok with this.
We are going to have an ultrasound on Monday. This is called a first trimester nuchal test. It is to see if the developing baby has any signs of Down Syndrome. With Tim having a child with Down Syndrome this is just something we felt we would like to know. This is not going to change anything about the pregnancy or the love that we have for this child. We would just like to know either way. We will get some good pictures I am sure and I will be sure to post them when we get them. I am pretty excited about seeing our little one.
I am still prett tired. I think a lot of that has to with working full time and going to school 3 nights a week. I am sure it will get better once school is done. I have 2 more weeks of night classes and then have clinicals during the day. I am so excited to be able to go home after work. The kids are also excited to have mom at home and not a baby sitter.
More to come next week.
