Week 11

Long weeks of nausea and trying to keep any food down is all I could think of, being able to eat again. I was due for another Dr. check up. Like always, they start by taking my blood pressure and checking my weight. I had lost 6 pounds from not being able to eat and any other time, I wouldn’t complain about losing weight but it concerned me that my baby wasn’t getting enough food.

The doctor reminded me, it was normal to lose weight the first few months. I felt better and remembered that part from when I was pregnant with both my girls who are now 9 and 4, Angelique and Analise.

She walked me to the room and gave me a gown to put on, I waited again. I felt nauseous and hoped I didn’t get any bad news. The doctor finally came and asked a few general questions. She began to look for the baby’s heart beat. At first she was having a difficult time finding it. I started to panic and think that the little heart I had seen a few weeks ago on my ultrasound was gone but a few more tries, moving the monitor on my stomach, she found it.

It read that its beating was 155 BPM. she said that it was a normal healthy heart. I was happy to hear that. So now I am due back in another 4 weeks. I will be 15 weeks then.
