My mood while writing this blog: excited |
We had an appointment this morning with our OB and it was a good one. I was so looking forward to this visit as it has been four weeks since our last and I was dying to hear our baby's heartbeat again. I've only felt him/her move once or twice and it's been well over a week so I was really hoping to get the affirmation that everything was okay with hearing the heartbeat. At first I was worried, as the nurse kept trying and trying to get it with the doppler to no avail. Finally after about 6-7 minutes she was able to find it. She said he/she is very active which is a good sign. The bpm ranged from 138-152 and that's a healthy place. My husband and I were elated when we heard the heartbeat --- it was amazing. So I was supposed to go back in 4 weeks to have the 20 week comprehensive ultrasound but the sonographer is going to be out-of-town that week. Fortunately, she scheduled me in for the previous week and not the later one. I am THRILLED to have to wait one less week to find out the health of our baby and the sex. I am really eager to get started with planning the nursery decor. I'm on top of the world right now!!! No more morning sickness and feeling less fatigued every day. The only yucky symptom going on currently is the occasional bad, bad headache. I haven't had one of those in a couple of days though!
