All is well with our baby girl. I saw Cooper today, which of course, was a delightful experience. He is in a tizzy because the air conditioner went out on his car. I need to post a picture of his license plate.....is that OK? Please no one steal the idea and use it for any malicious activity. It's really funny.
Anyway, I closed my eyes when I got on the scale but to my delight I lost 2 pounds, I exclaimed, "God Bless America!" Is that using the Lord's name in vain? I have started out this pregnancy meatier than I would like and REALLY don't want to gain much weight. My blood pressure was just OK but I'm still getting good readings at home and my heart rate is still over 100......so no exercising but he did say I could 'stroll around the block' if I really wanted to.
Noelle loves hearing the baby's heartbeat. Afterwards we went across the street and saw Aunt Lorrie, she had some herbs for me from her garden. We peeked at the baby with her ultrasound machine that is meant for the heart but she is still small enough that she could get a decent picture. She was kicking back with her feet crossed.
We also saw Dr. Tabsh my Maternal Fetal Medicine guy last week and that went really well, also. Except for the fire alarm that kept going off. He did the 20 week 'anomaly scan' and she looked great. She did not have a goiter (which can be caused by the medication.) I will continue to see him every 4 weeks for a consult and ultrasound. I am finally starting to feel her move around in there. Dr. Tabsh confirmed that my placenta was anterior (on the front of my uterus) so it was blocking most of her movements. So, now I feel her several times a day and am so glad!
