15 Week, 6 Day Appointment

I had another doctor's appointment last Thursday.  Since this was my 16 week appointment, it was a really short and uneventful appointment.

My doctor was doing an emergency c-section so I saw the nurse practitioner instead.  My blood pressure was more normal this time 108/60 and I've noticed that I don't get so dizzy when standing up anymore (it's more occasional than all the time).  I'm up to 133 lbs so I've officially gained 8 lbs so far (5 lbs in the last month).  The nurse practitioner checked the baby's heartbeat and it was in the 140s.  No ultrasound this time but I have the big ultrasound appointment at 20 weeks when they check and measure everything with the baby and we get to find out if we are having a boy or girl.

I'm feeling a lot better than I had a few weeks ago but I still don't feel amazing.  Late afternoon and evening are my hardest time with nausea and not being able to eat.  But it's really much better than before!
