Heartrate @ 13ish weeks

Well it has been 3 weeks since my last post, and not much has changed.  Still feel nauseous most days.  The worst is between lunch and bedtime.  Still not eating healthy.  I eat a lot of little fruit juice gummies after every meal pretty much.  Oh and we went on vacation to my parents house last week and my dad loves to cook.  I started to get an appetite back and was sure I gained about 5 pounds in that week.  I am used to weighing myself every morning same time, and last week i had no scale.  So when i returned home I weighed myself and gained nothing.  Not sure if it is because I am going to the bathroom (#2 sorry TMI) a few times a day now or not but I feel like I should be gaining or showing by now.  I am still very tired all the time.

On another note, I bought a fetal doppler a few months ago (can't remember if I posted about it already).  I have been able to hear the heartrate but could never get a number on the screen.  Well today DH and I finally saw the number on the doppler a few times, the heartrate was so fast and I LOVED hearing it.  Today, at 13ish weeks the rate was 163 bpm.

Another 4 weeks until my next appointment and hopefully we will schedule an ultrasound then.  I am getting very impatient.   I know I am forgetting stuff, but I am ready for bed.

10 weeks

This is just a quick update. I have not been feeling well at all the last few weeks. Eating is the biggest challenge so far. Well keeping it settled is the challenging part. No cravings but a lot of food really turn me off now. I have to eat very small meals that is the trick for me. My meals are pretty much peanut butter English muffin for breakfast and cherios for a snack. PB&J sandwich for lunch and some crackers in the afternoon snack. Supper is cheese and crackers or mashed potatoes mixed with sweet potatoes. I stick with the same foods pretty much thinking maybe my body will get used to them and stop throwing it up.
I had my first parental this week all that happened was a pap test. That was it.
My weight went down since my last appointment down 2 pounds.

Still no heart rate or ultrasound and my next appointment is not until September 17. I am really stressing out about this pregnancy with my appointments being so far apart.

Well that's all for now I am so tired and ready for bed

Oh and my husband is coming home this weekend and I am so excited to see him.
