Didn't See A Thing

I had a doctor's appointment today....we were so excited....another chance to see our baby * me blushing* Unfortunately, Jhonnie was working and couldn't make it, but that's ok. So I got there, and sat in the waiting room for an hour and half. My appointment was at 9:45, but my name wasn't called til almost 11:15. It gave me some time to observe other "mommies to be". For the first time in my life I was the smallest one in the room.......I mean there were some ladies that were just HUGE. I'm prayin that I don't get that big, I mean the doctor telling me that I'm going to gain 30 pounds in the next 7 months is bad enough.

So, they finally call my name and I get weighed (gained3 pounds since 3/1, just what I needed j/k), gave a urine sample, got all normal results from the blood work, and yay, my blood pressure was normal! I'm not sure if I had mentioned this in my past few blogs, but that was a big concern with everyone. Since I got pregnant, my blood pressure has been really high, and I've been closely monitored. I was almost considered high risk pregnancy, but no more worries for now...big sigh of relief.

Anyhow, this time my ultrasound was done over the belly. I waited in aniticipation, eyes wide open, staring at the monitor.....but couldn't see a thing. The doctor said the baby has gotten bigger and seems to be doing just fine......WTH? I'm happy to hear that , but I'm like where do you see that? I cant see a thing. He said I'm still a bit too small to hear the heart beat, I can see it though, and a little to early to see a good image of the baby. Well that just sucks ass (I'm gonna be a mommy now, so Im going to have to refrain from using any profanity....I may need some help with that)....I've been looking forward to this doctor's visit so I can see a picture of my baby, and nothing.

I mean, I have 24 hour sickness, discovering everyday that there's another type of food that the baby doesn't like. Had a wonderful time in the shower this morning. As I was brushing my teeth, I threw up eggs....am I oversharring? I'm sick to my stomache ALL day long, can't get enough sleep, and I vomit eveytime I think I've found something to eat. My husband says he feels so helpless. But at the end of the day, we lie in bed and rub my tummy and it makes everything alright.....if being sick all day is making my baby stronger and healthier, then bring it on, I don't mind it at all, anything for the my baby in my tummy!
