9 weeks


This past Wednesday I had my 2nd doctor's appointment. It was only 2 weeks from my 1st, but I noticed a HUGE difference in the sonograms. On my first one, it was a tiny dot. On this one I could actually tell it was a little person! It was doing a head stand in this picture. At one point it looked like it was waving it's little hand. The doctor didn't say anything, but I noticed I gained 2 lbs since last time, which means 1 lb a week. I'm hoping it's just my normal fluctuating weight. Although every time I look at my stomach in the mirror I just look bloated. Lately I've still been feeling bad with the occasional throw up. I just got a nausea prescription filled today, so hopefully that will balance things out. Other than that, things look good!

Congratulations! That is so exciting! I wonder what you'll have...maybe you and Marianne will both have the same thing- i mean gender. I can't believe your car got broken into. What punks. I HATE people who would do that. Especially when you know if someone did that to them they'd be p.o.ed!!

The picture looks good. We don't go to the new doctor until next week. I don't know if they will do a sonogram or not, probably not. Mom said your vitamins were upsetting your stomach, you may try taking two children vitamins. As for the 1lb a week, remind me to cry you a river.

Very awesome! I am still looking for a doctor. Uggg! I am so excited for you two. Don't worry Jalei the bloated feeling and "look" will go away soon. It seemed that as soon as Susie started getting bigger I felt smaller. She was eating all my excess. My philosophy about "eating while pregnant" is...eat what you body tells you it is needing and then stop at that point. I followed that advice with Susie and only gained 18 pounds (she was 7.5 of that) but we'll see with this next one. I have heard everyone is different.
