OK several things:
1). Lost two more pounds... 12 pounds lost so far...
2). Iron levels are down again...
3). Heartbeat was great...163
4). 3 more weeks and I am half way there.. Wow seems to have flown by to some degree.
5). Went for a AFP test (tests for Down Syndrome) results will be back nenxt Wed. No matter what the results, this baby is ours. Brian wanted the test just to prepare mentally if need be.
Then....
Went to the hospital for the AFP test... I HATE needles so much that I think my veins run and hide when they see needles coming. They tried to get a vein to "pop" on the left arm... Nothing..went to the right arm .. found a very small vein... Got the needle in and then dug around for about 10 min to try and get a drop of blood -- nothing. Went back to the left arm... I was fed up.. Told them I have plenty of showing veins in my wrists, feet and at this point boobs too... I don't care where you get the blood leave my arms alone... They then go for the left hand. Finally got a vein, but the blood just dripped ever so slowly in there... Well, that is my update....
Next Appointment is in January... till then or at least the next post.

I ALWAYS had low iron levels..every pregnancy and I can really relate to the fear of the needles! :( My veins were always running away from the needles it seemed...
I am taking iron supplements... hoping that will help.
