There you have it. I couldn't believe it. I did home pregnancy tests 7 times and then my family dr here did a blood test just to make sure. I had such a hard time believe that I am pregnant the Dr. had to reasure me. "Yes, You are indeed pregnant." I did the hpt 7 times because the 1st and 3rd one were from the Dollar Store and the blue tip ones are bought on the internet. The pink one was a Wal-Mart brand. Anyway, I'm currently 18 weeks along. I haven't felt the baby just yet (I didn't feel Rebekah till I was 20+ weeks so part of me thinks this will be the same.) I had an early ultrasound at 11 weeks because of my previous history with pregnancies etc. The ultrasound went well. The babies heart rate was 162 at the ultrasound and past fetal heart rates (at the dr's visits etc) have been 156 and 152 respectfully. At the last Dr's appointment (when the fhr was 152, I was measuring 20 weeks but my weight is 99.1 kg.(218lbs) So far my weight started out at 215 at my complete medical in October and that was before I was pregnant (actually around the time I would have been ovulating) Ideally, I don't want to gain to much and if I do I just want to gain the usual 26 pounds that the books recommend. My family dr no longer delivers so I'm being referred to another family Dr. here to do that. Hopefully, I'll hear from them soon. I think that is a quick update but nonetheless an update. Hopefully, I'll keep you updated more frequently now that I'm out of the 1st trimester of sleeping lots and gagging. Things are going good.
