I don't really feel like I know how to start posts now because it's been so long since writing. I also doubt there are more than 5 people reading this anymore, but that's okay! I have re-read what I now affectionately call Oliver's pregnancy journal (my previous entries) over and over again, and I'm so glad I have them to look back on. Definitely a treasure...
Things here seem to be progressing well but we're also at the state where we (assume) we're pregnant, yet there's no real official sign or feelings. I have bad days, but they aren't necessarily what I think of as morning sickness or pregnancy related, they could just simply be bad days! I thought working up in OB was going to help prepare me better for the next pregnancy, and it has, but I'm afraid now I just know everything possible that can go wrong, and am honestly okay with it, but at the same time I'm not really allowing myself to fully "believe" I'm pregnant. We even got to see a baby on ultrasound! The machine sits right by my desk and we had an hour off and 3 of us quickly just ran in a room to see if we could find anything. Of course we couldn't! But my doctor popped her head in and took a look, finding a gestational sac and a fetal pole (think tiny kidney bean). That made me feel better (again, I don't really feel like I'm overly concerned about a healthy pregnancy, just being more realistic maybe?) and so we'll take a look again in a few weeks to see some good growth hopefully.
And what is with the belly the second time around? Geesh -- at this rate the maternity clothes are coming out at 10 weeks, not 20 weeks like before!!! I can definitely see why they say taking the weight off second time around is hard, because it comes on much quicker!
TTFN. <><
