**warning-Baby Appt discussed**
This week has been a really stressful week. I can't express enough how many emotions have been flying around in our house for the last little bit. This Morning was my "15 week" Appointment. This puts me 5 weeks away from the time in which the twins were born. I hadn't been to the doctor in 4 weeks-which is normal for this stage of pregnancy. So, you can imagine how anxious I was for todays appointment.
In the last 5 days, I've given myself not ONE but TWO fever blisters-This happens to me when I get nervous, upset, sick or anxious *thank you mom & dad for this trait*.I haven't had one as bad as I do right now in YEARS!
IT started with the news that my blood pressure was high-which was NOT a shock considering my panic late yesterday into the evening over thinking of todays appointment. But, after we got past this, My Dr. came in & immediately saw the stress on my face. She smiled & told me she knew what had me worried and that it was her job to worry-not mine. From here, came the time to try to find our beans heart beat.
I have to be honest, when she found I started to cry. My Dr. grabbed my hand & just smiled. She said "let's listen for a few minutes, ok"? I honestly think it's the longest time I've ever had anyone allow me to listen to my childrens heartbeats. It was the most beautiful sound today in light of all of the things I've felt lately and worried about.
So, I go back in 3 weeks for another HB check & measurement & then the week after THAT so that CRIS can find out the gender & we can have our anatomy scans. YEs, again I am standing behind the " I do not want to know". Cris definately has decided he wants to know if we're having a boy or a girl.
BUT for those of you that have said you want him to tell you-sorry but you are out of luck-He said he's not telling ANYONE!
