What a Week!
Monday: I had a doctor's appointment. I got to hear the heartbeat!!!!! But I should start at the beginning. He was impressed with my unique pants solution. I was getting maternity clothes the next day so I wasn't about to go out and buy clothes so for the last while I've been looping an elastic around my pants button to keep them closed but still have enough room for my belly. Well, anyway, everything looks good, good size and everything and then he out the goop on and put the mic on my belly. I could hear a heartbeat right away but since he had to search so long last time, I was sure it must have been my heartbeat right away. But then he looked at me and asked if I could hear that. I asked if that was the baby. He just nodded and that's when I started crying. He just kinda smiled and passed me a Kleenex. I guess he gets that a lot. I was just so relieved. I still had lingering doubts whether or not it was all in my mind still. I can image morning sickness and pains and I still hadn't actually gained any weight. But you can't fake an extra heartbeat. Whew. Next milestone will be to feel the baby move. I think I might have felt it the other day but that still be my imagination.
Tuesday: I took the bus to Regina. The ride went really well actually. I didn't get sick although it did get close a few times.
Wednesday: Spent the day with my parents and nieces. I had a great nap! Those girls never stop! It was a lot of fun and I got to try on some of my new maternity clothes. Some fit now but a few will have to wait until I get a bit bigger. Spent the evening with my friend. Good times.
Thursday: Drove to Saskatoon to take the girls to meet up with their parents. Got to see my sister and brother in law. I think she's excited about the baby! It was a short visit but it was nice to see them again. Then we kept driving on the Flin Flon. We stopped in Prince Albert for lunch. I had a Cesar salad that was amazing. Even the garlic bread was great. All of the sudden, food tastes way better. I guess I'm gaining that weight now! So we kept driving and soon enough we drove into town. We picked up Mark and went for supper. Again, really good food. The evening was nice and soon we were all very tired and went to bed.
Friday: My parents went home and I spent the rest of the day laying around and doing a lot of nothing. But I did go for a long walk with Deeds. By the end of the walk, I was dragging her but I think it did us both some good.
Today: Slept in. Mark went fishing and I have a few things I need to do but I have an entire week to get it all done!!!
