I had my second Doctor’s appointment this week. They said everything looks good and the heartbeat sounds great. I am happy to report that I have only gained one pound. I am not sure how…since I have eaten horribly the past month, but I am thankful. I think by this time with the last pregnancy I had already gained 10 pounds.
I am definitely trying to be more aware of my weight this second time around, since I gained 55 with Seth. Thankfully, I had gotten most of it off before the second one got here.
Also, no big deal…but the doctor told me that I may need a C-Section this time. He said since Seth was such a large baby (9 lb. 14 oz) that I had the potential this time of having an 11 lb. baby. YIKES!!!
Sweet….now there’s something to look forward too! 🙂 But he is going to order an ultra sound towards the last few weeks of my pregnancy and I can determine then what I would like to do. So we will see. I am not worried about it.
Also, August 12th is my next appointment and I will find out what we are having. Which then will start the ongoing disagreement between Scott and myself about what we should name him/her. We totally don’t agree on names. It took us forever to decide on Seth.
My cravings this pregnancy have been slightly different this time around. With Seth…I could eat anything but Mexican, Coffee, and meat for the first trimester. And anytime anybody would say anything like… fried rice…that would be what I would crave for the moment.
I am sort of the same in that I crave whatever people mention, and I don’t want Mexican. And I have been a little stand offish from meat. But this time I always want tomato sandwiches and deviled eggs. In fact, typing this is making me hungry!!!!
