Today, I am 14 weeks. I am really forgetting to post something during the label week of these posts!
I went to the doctor on Monday. My blood pressure was 161/84 the first time they took it and 156/88 the second time they took it, so it is high. My weight is 185.2 lbs, so I haven't gained any since a month ago. Then, when they tried to find the baby's heartbeat with the doppler the PA student couldn't find it and neither could the midwife. So, they brought in the ultrasound machine. Luckily, they were able to see the heartbeat on the monitor, and the midwife said that it looked good. It was pretty much the scariest moment of my life!
Then, they made me go to the lab to get a jug. I had to collect my urine for 24 hours. The midwife wanted to get a baseline for protein since protein in urine and high blood pressure can mean preeclampsia. This is SO scary for me especially since I am not showing very much still.
Caleb is doing good in Iraq. I get to instant message him almost every night since he has gotten to Iraq, and I have gotten to use the webcam with him twice now. I really LOVE getting to see him!
Sookie is doing great! We started basic obedience classes on Monday, and she did really good. We also have one of her puppy friends over (a 9-month-old pug) a few days a week. It really wears her out!
