Quick overview of appointment 1. We talked with nurse and OB, did a ton of blood work and they ordered a 24 hour urine for me. I have high blood pressure and could develop preeclampsia. I am not to gain any more than 15 pounds for the whole pregnancy as I am already overweight. We are due February 1st 2009.
Yesterday we had appointment 2. All blood work and urine is normal! YAY! No further weight gain! YAY!
Our doctor got out her Doppler to listen for the heartbeat. After about 3 minutes of moving the device around, there was nothing. We were told not to fear as it is hard to find this early (I am 11 weeks) and with my excessive weight.
We have an ultrasound on Tuesday. We HAVE to see the heartbeat.
Dear Peanut:Please show us your happy, healthy self! Show us that beautiful beating heart!
If I can, I will post a picture and share details.
Prayers and vibes are requested please. Thank you.
