Today was my 3rd OB appointment. This one was a little more exciting. In addition to all the routine stuff I got to hear the heartbeat! Mom went with me today so she got to hear it for the first time. The heartbeat was 156 today and the doctor said that was great. Blood pressure and all was normal. I have only gained 3 more pounds so I am at 5 pounds total. I was pretty excited about that, especially since my appetite is back!
I still get sick in the mornings but I am starting to get hungry more often now! I still rely on comfort food a good bit like french fries and baked potatoes. Those have been my favorite but lately I have added cheeseburgers to the mix. I really haven't had any crazy cravings or anything but when I get hungry I have to eat right then or I get light headed. I have been getting heartburn which is not fun but the doctor gave me some new medicine that I have to take daily that is hopefully going to take care of it.
We go back in two weeks and get to have the big ultrasound done which will be where we get to see if we are having a boy or a girl! I am so excited. He decided since I would be a little over 17 weeks that I was far enough along and wasn't going to make me wait four weeks like I normally would. Buck and I have started debating on names and have some good options but can't seem to agree on any of them! We do have our boy name picked out but don't agree on the spelling yet. Hopefully we will have something picked out so when we find out what we are having I can start buying things and start monogramming everything in sight!
