It went great, heard baby's heartbeat nice and strong and I successfully did the whole weigh in, pee in a cup, stick a stick in it and see if it turns fun colors, (I seem to remember we would get in trouble for that at home, but you know.. pregnancy.. everything goes!)
We measured in at 21 weeks which is what we will be tomorrow (Thursday) so baby is nice and on track for that!
She also took some blood... as usual the drooling over my veins was prevalent and she actually called them "Yummy"... Medical people... gee wiz. I don't handle the blood part so I didn't look at all and it didn't really hurt but after a little bit of the drawing of what felt like vial after vial of my precious life juice, I started getting a little warm.. and then a little sick... and then she was done, but I still was a little sick. I wasn't going to say anything but I looked over at Mark and he was turning black and white so I went ahead and just mentioned that I was going to throw up soon, and they gave me some Gatorade. Bless them. After a few minutes I felt a lot better and it was all behind us! Except that I HAD to sleep for like 3 hours this afternoon... I am not sure if that was related at all.
As far as a 21 Week update: I feel GREAT and I feel like I have hit the phase where I want to sleep ALL THE TIME and eat everything in sight. Honestly, I rarely feel squished inside at all yet, its like I just built on a little addition for baby to live in and so far so good!
See! Nice little addition. I still haven't started gaining any weight back but I have sat at a solid 14 lbs below my pre-pregnancy weight for a week now, so I think I should start going up soon!
