Symptoms: Finally kicked the cold!!! I am feeling great! Symptoms - let's see..... my gums started bleeding a little bit this past week which is expected. The same thing happened during my last pregnancy. I'm also getting up at least 2 times each night to go to the bathroom.
Thyroid: Next follow up appointment is in March. I already had a previous appointment scheduled in March before I learned I was pregnant. If my blood work comes back great, then I will keep the March appt. If not, then I will follow up sooner. I am currently on 88mcg dose. The last two visits I had were late in the afternoon and I was there for almost two hours! Awful!
Maternity Clothes: It is definitely about that time!!!!!!!! I officially broke out the belly band yesterday! I had Steve get my two bins of maternity clothes down so that I can start going through it all. My belly is really starting to get bigger. It is like it grew over the weekend. I think I will be good on work pants for awhile since I have bigger sizes in those, but my jeans will definitely need to be worn with the belly band. I plan to sort through all of my maternity clothes when Steve and Lottie head for England.
Gender: We find out the sex today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am thinking it is a girl! Hoping for a boy, but either way as long as I have a healthy baby, I could care less. Either is going to be just fine. Steve did give me a warning the other day that if it is a girl, we are NOT going to try for a boy. He said that is it........... HA! We shall see!
Movement: A few flutters here and there, but nothing too noticeable. I'm ready though!
Food Cravings: Anything sweet (that is why I'm thinking girl). I also had a crazy craving for Nakatos and Cheerios this past week.
Food Aversions: Another week where nothing was averted!!!! Geeezzzz!!!
Best Moment of the Week: Lottie sitting on my legs looking at my belly, saying, "Hi baby". So cute!
What I Miss: Sleeping on my stomach. I am a stomach sleeper - always have been!! I've just recently this last week been unable to sleep on my stomach as it has become uncomfortable.
Differences Between 1st Pregnancy & 2nd Pregnancy: My belly really grew this past weekend! During my first pregnancy I didn't really start showing until I was 23/24 weeks along. I remember the first time I went maternity clothes shopping wasn't until around 24 weeks.
Fears/Dreading: Lottie accidentally jumping on me, ripping my incision open. Why do I keep having these horrific thoughts??????? I think it must be b/c everything with my incision and the surgery went so smoothly the first time around. I also think it may have something to do with me handling medical malpractice claims that makes me so uneasy about surgery, etc. Geezzzz
Follow Up Appointments/Ultrasounds: I have an ultrasound today!! Next f/u appt. with my doctor is December 27th.
Bump Photo: Tailgating - I see a belly!!!!!
