(Oct 2 ultrasound picts)
Up to this point, I really was only experiencing the cramping on my left abdominal side and my chest (OK, breasts but trying to remain socially correct!) was so sore. I don't know if it's just pyschology but I didn't have any morning sickness until the day I walked out of the Dr's after seeing the baby's heartbeat. Then, I started to dry heave! I guess everything didn't seem real up to that point and I can't say how exciting it is to see that little heart!
This week's morning sickness was getting worse but it only comes after I eat. Really, weird. I decided to start working out with Steve again but it was very minimal this week. I cramp really hard after a workout but always feel so great when I'm exercising. I've been off my mood meds for a month now and it's really starting to wear on me!
The Dr. wanted a followup appt. this week and would you believe we not only saw a growing baby but got to hear the heartbeat - so cool! And it's little arms and legs were moving. It's becoming more real!
I've always been told it's good to be sick because that means the hormones are strong in the baby and it's a positive for them and their growth. I always carried a plastic bag in my purse for such 'good' occasions. :)
ReplyDeleteI stayed on my mood medications through all 3 of me pregnancies. I went as low as a could on my dosage. You do what you have to do.
ReplyDeleteI love your updates and feelings on both your kids. Thanks for sharing.
