Well, the good news is that Peanut is doing well, growing like a weed (which also means muh belly is too)
The dr's appointment went well. All of my vitals are great: blood pressure and all...the weight gain, that is another story. My appointment was 5 weeks from the last, which makes a big difference, because I have had two noticeable belly growth spurts. (This means weight increases) Plus, I must admit that I did over-indulge at the birthday celebrations this past weekend....:) Gotta love that German Chocholate Cake and Ice Cream!
My new mantra is as follows "scale = enemy". Don't get me wrong, I know that I am supposed to gain weight, but any woman knows it's still not really fun. I say that because my back and neck are officially killing me. The large protusion from my midsection is throwing me all out of alignment. I am achy all day long.
But Peanut is thriving like I said. Baby has a real strong heartbeat, but is a little shy or tempermental. When the dr was taking the heartbeat it kept moving away from the doppler, like "dont mess with me"I haven't been sleeping real well, which I expected to happen, but at least most of the time I am awake Peanut is too, so I have company.
I am going to schedule an appointment with a massage therapist to see if they can work the kinks out of my neck and back....love that I have an excuse to get a massage!My next appointment is in 2 weeks, so I have been moved to the more frequent appointments now, which can only mean, it's getting CLOSE! Down to the final stretch.....11 weeks and counting.
Thanks for reading!
