Went to my OB/GYN appt today, it was my first with the doctor who will doing the c-section, she was great. She answered all my questions, then it was time for the doppler...2mins go by...then one more minute and nothing. The silence almost made me cry, I knew it wasnt right, she didnt have a very positive expression either, then she says "looks like you are getting an u/s today". I couldnt even get excited, Leandro and I were beyond freaked by this point, but we kept our head up and off we went. We got there and I couldnt see the screen, I just kept looking at Leandro's face to see if he was happy sad or what..he says "oh there it is" i asked what and he said the heartbeat. I just wanted to grab the screen and turn it towards me, the tech didnt say a thing. Then she started talking and said how all looked well, the BPM was 167 and congratulated us. We were soooooo happy and relieved, because we were just ready for the worst at that point.
On an even happier note, I only gained 3 lbs so far, this might seem a lot for some but for me it is great. At this point in my last pregnancy I had already gained 15 lbs. I am hoping to stick to the diet the nutritionist helped me put together to see if I can gain a max of 25lbs and avoid Gestational Diabetes.
I guess now I can stop worrying for a couple weeks, thanks so much for everyone who kept us in their prayers.
