12 Week Checkup

Today I had my 12 week doctor appointment. (We're actually 12 1/2 weeks along). The nurse (Jamie) had a tough time getting a read on the baby's heartbeat long enough to count the beats. Seems like this little one's doing lots of gymnastics and wouldn't be still. Jamie finally got a good reading and the baby's heartbeat was 160 which was "perfect". I'll have another ultra sound already at my next visit. My fingers are crossed that we'll find out the sex as I'll be 16 1/2 weeks along at that point. We think it's a girl but only God knows for sure right now!
Everything is going good so far. I haven't gained any weight at all since finding out 6 weeks ago that we're pregnant. Jamie said it's nothing to worry about as it's still early days.

Shootin' it up

Every morning I have to give myself a shot of Lovenox to thin my blood. This is to hopefully help prevent the growth restriction that Weston had. It's not a lot of fun and sometimes burns like crazy. I give myself the shots in my thighs, alternating every day, so both of my thighs are completely black and blue. Good thing I'm not going to the beach!
