I have begun to feel *much* better these days. I got a cold just over a week ago and strangely kept feeling more and more energetic the sicker I got! I've started weaning myself off the medication for my nausea and so far so good. Oh, and I'm HUNGRY. Every two hours during the day I am suddenly ravenous. I can usually make it through the night without a meal but at 430 on Saturday morning I woke up feeling hungry and had to eat a bowl of cereal before I could get back to sleep!
This weeks blog is a bit later than my usual Sunday post because I wanted to wait and report on my midwifery appointment on Tuesday. All went well, my uterus is measuring at a normal size which means its unlikely I'm pregnant that with twins although we wont know for sure until the ultrasound at the end of May/early June. The midwife assured me that the 10lbs I've gained to date is normal. We listened to the baby's heart beat for the very first time! It was so exciting and amazing - I cried. For your listening pleasure I've attached the recording of the heart sounds from the doppler:

Hee. I heard that on the radio last week and thought of you. Start saving for private school now! :)
ReplyDeleteWe heard the heart beat. Definitely sounds like one of my descendents. Obviously not twins.
