We had our second dr appt today. We got to meet Dr Lacher who will be delivering our baby, if it works out how we hope!!! He seems like a really nice guy. Kind of a dry sense of humor but really down to earth. I think it will be a good fit! The best part was that we got to hear the heart beat!!! It was amazing!!! I can't believe how fast it is! The dr said that it sounded very strong and because of that he said there is pretty much a zero chance for miscarriage at this point. Which was very relieving because we had a little scare yesterday with a little spotting. But it was minimal and is gone now. So that was very good to hear!!!
All of my lab work from last time came back negative and I found out my blood type is A positive. I have lost a few pounds so he suggested that I stop my prenatal vitamins for 2 weeks to see if I can completely kick my morning sickness. It is a thousand times better, but every couple of mornings I still throw up. So hopefully that will help to make it stop completely.
I also got a flu shot for the first time in my life! But they say it is a good idea if you are pregnant because it is not good if pregnant ladies get influenza. So I figured better to be safe than sorry.
So everything looks good on the baby front!!! We are really excited and it's starting to feel a little more real. I took a twelve week picture of my belly, but it's not really a "belly" yet! So I will probably post a 16 week picture. So stay tuned!!!!!

I'm back :)
It's a miracle!!!!! And I am not just talking about giving life to a child. I am talking about me and the fact that I haven't thrown up in 2 whole days!!!!!!!! And I haven't been taking the Unisom any more either. I finally feel "human" again!!!! I still want to go to bed at 8:30, but I feel more like me again!! I guess what they say about hitting 12 weeks is true!!! That's when it started going up hill for me! And I hope that it just keeps getting better. I am looking forward to enjoying being pregnant!! My next doctor's appt is on Monday, so I will give an update then.
