The Latest And Greatest Appointment.

Today I am 14 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I feel more like 40 weeks with the "missing" energy that I was supposed to get back during the 2nd trimester. I drug myself out of bed this morning to get two of four kids off to school, which meant I had to take my soon to be 3yr old and soon to be 10yr old to my OB appointment. It's always interesting because they want to know what the diagrams are on the wall, and the unexpected questions like "Do I have one of those?" Yeah, I wanted to crawl under the exam table when she asked that one. But don't fret, it was just my general check up; urine sample, weight, measurements, fetal heartbeat and insanity check. So nothing too serious that they couldn't be in the room with me.

All of the really important lab work came back OK. But there were a few things that she did want to discuss with me, one being my thyroid test. We heard the baby's heart beat, so sweet. And I only gained +1 pound! Yay! I don't understand how your mid-section can grow but you don't gain weight. So next month I get to find out what I'm having. Boy, girl or a cat.

I would show some bare belly picks but I don't think you could handle my war wounds from previous children.
