Hi! DOc appt was good - baby's heartbeat is 145 bpm and I gained 1/2 lb so we must be getting some nutrition there! I am feeling better - still pukish in morning but it is tolerable. Doc said not to freak out over the sleeping. Just turn back n my side when I wake up. He said sleeping propped up was okay which is actually how I normally sleep due to the disc (flat on my back is not so good when you have a bad back). ACtually I have found that lying on my side helps not only heartburn but nausea and exhustion at times, too. They are probably going to do just a regular u/s next Tuesday when they do the amnio because he said it is probblay too early to do the big one, and they will just do that one a few weeks later. But he said if the tech can see enough, they might just do it all then (I will be 18 1/2 weeks at that point). Daniella - yeah, I tried a few versions of veggies, grilled, fried, raw, steamed, slathered in butter or cheese and no go - usually the sight and smell alone made me ill - sometimes just teh thought!. The green beans were a big victory and I had eggplant parmigiana yesterday but that weirdly enough I was able to have one other time (maybe because I breaded it). SO I think the veggie thing is shaping up. I was getting tired of just pppers and carrots and tomatoes, already. Bee - whenever you tell your stories I just LMAO and wish I was hearing you tell it in person because something tells me you are even funnier than you already are when you write. I still crack up at the story of your daughter yelling at the doctor to not hurt Coco! Dawn - hope your massage was awesome! Don't take this the wrong way, but now that you are :"over 35" you could technically ask them to discuss testing if you wanted. I would get a full check up though since you never had a pelvic exam aftert the m/c, before testing or anything.
