Pregnancy Info HOME

OHMY GOD! I am SO HAPPY for you, Allie! That is wonderful news. I was hoping that was the reason we hadn't heard from you in awhile. Well, good, now i have another "AMO" to keep me company (ha, ha!). I am so glad that everything worked out. Dawn I am rooting for you to be next! And Christie, you, to asap! Yes it was me who got lost - you two crack me up! You sounded like a game of telephone - it was not Dawn on Rhode Island, it was Helene on Long Island! ha, ha! Anywya, I am glad your numbers are so good Christie. May third time be the charm. Tara - I know everyone says to relax and that that is the hardest thing to do. We all feel like or innoccence has been stolen with a m/s, but your situation was so exceptionally shattering that it must be so hard to wait out those weeks until you know for sure all is okay. I know it was so hard for me, and I did not go through as much as you did. I think the ladies ar right - try to just take one day at a time. I am not going to tell you to relax, because I know that is easier said than done, and only aggravated me when people would say it to me. My amnio is scheduled for 6/26. I feel very comfortable with my decision to have one for the reasons I stated. PLus, I am hoping that all will be good news and it will bring me such peace of mind to hear it. I fel awful saying this, but while I am loving being pregnant, I really did not enjoy the first trimester because I was so anxious about everything. I have finally reached a point where I am comfortable emotionaly (if not necessarily ohysically!). The good news is that although I did dry heave in the shower today on all fours, the nausea stayed away the whole day (well I did have one minor second where I felt an urge but it passed quickly) and I ate everything I could! ha. ha! I had this enormous craving for beef with black bean sauce which I indulged. The best part about it is that it has peppers and onions which is on the short list of veggies I can eat without trauma. And seeing as I did not gain any weight (but my pants sure as hell are tight!) I decided to have a cupcake for dessert! ha, ha! I guess that is one good side effect of puking. I have only gained a little over a pound, but the belly is growing, and doc is not worried. How funy - i was so worried I would have problems with weight gain because i am overweight and need to gain slowly,and here I am worried because i am not gaining. Watch - i will probably gain a ton in the end!
