A few minor updates to the pregnancy....
Doctors Appointment - Monday, August 13th
Weight - 137 (down 4 pounds from first appt)
Blood Pressure - 112/71
Heartbeat - 166!!! (did I mention this is a girl...I'm convinced!)
Things are status-quo... Belly sounds good and growing well. Heartbeat is strong and speedy. Doc gave me some new prenatal vitamins that have ginger in them to help with nausea...not seeing a huge change with them but they are easier to swallow than those Centrum ones! Doc also said I need to stop heading backwards on the scale. I'm having a hard time eating anything these days but I'm hoping that will pick up as I head over into my second trimester this week. I also went to the store and stocked up on Boost Plus with 360 calories per drink. I'm trying to add at least 2 to 3 a day for a while to help maintain my weight while I wait for the "bleh" to wear off. As the week progressed, I will still dropping weight...at this point, I think I'm down 7-9 pounds from the initial weigh-in. Seems good in theory but not when you are growing a little bean :)
Next Appointment - Wednesday, August 22nd - Ultrasound! :) Stay tuned for updated bean photos
