26-5-2009 - 10 week DR appointment

My mood while writing this blog: Happy

Hi everyone!

Well today I had my 10 week checkup. One of the first things he did was got the dopler out and tried listening for a heartbeat. He was looking for about 1-2 minutes with nothing. Then he found it!! It was 184bpm! I was so shocked that he found it because I have no idea of when I actually fell pregnant because it was straight after the miscarriage! So I had it in my mind that he would not be able to find it because maybe I was not 10 weeks yet! So crazy!!

He did all the other fun things like a papsmear, blood pressure etc... And said that at the moment the due date stays at 21st of December.
Also, just for my record my I was weighed today and I weigh 106 pounds, (48kg). I was a little shocked, I thought I weighed more, but I have put on 10 pounds since my thyroid problem at the end of last year. So I guess I should not worry. I know I will put on more to make up for it in the next few months!

I have also noticed that my belly is so bloated. My button on my jeans wont do up. Which is so uncomfortable! I am not ready to wear my maternity pants yet!! :)
Most of our immediate family knows now. My SIL asked me on sunday if we are going to start trying again, or if I am already pregnant, and I could not lie, so I told her. I will not be telling anyone else though until our ultrasound at 15 weeks.

Well I had better make it to bed now, my DS has been waking up early lately! One good thing is I get a daily nap when he is sleeping, which I need!! I am so exhausted!
