2nd Doctor's Visit

Today, we had our 2nd doctor's visit.  I have been sick with severe morning sickness.  They RXed me a medicine to stop the vomiting so I can eat.  But, this week, I have been throwing up again with the medicine.  I had an embarrassing moment on Wednesday.  I had to pull off an exit off I-75 on my way home from school and threw up.  :(  Please pray for me as I get through the morning sickness.  It is honestly the worse thing I have gone through - much worse than having the flu.


Anyway, the doctor mentioned that I have to try to keep drinking so I will not get dehydrated.  He said that if I do become dehydrated, I will be admitted to the hospital and get IV treatments.  I do not want that - so pray!!


On other hand, I had a breakthrough today at the doctor's office.  After worrying I would never get to hear the heartbeats, they surprised me with a machine that looks like a walkie-talkie that has a microphone attached to the machine.  They put it the "microphone" on my stomach and the doctor turned up the volume and told me to hold on the "walkie-talkie".  I felt several thumping or "beats".  I asked the doctor what it was... He said it was the baby's heartbeats.  I broke down right there.  I thought it was an amazing thing to be able to "feel" the heartbeats when I couldn't hear.  Daniel said that it sounds like whoosh whoosh.  He got to hear it!  :)  Just had to share that with you all.


I will be 13 weeks on Wednesday.... 1 or 2 more weeks until the morning sickness go away!!!  Then 1- 1/2 more months until we find out the sex of the baby. 


That's all, folks.  Love you all!!
