Tuesday ... January 8th... What did the Dr. Say!!!

Well, all went well or almost well~!!!! The GREAT News ~ Baby is measuring just fine... Heartbeat was 166 and we could hear baby dearest kicking... Still wondering when I am going to feel those kicks... I gained 2 pounds... (Yikes) Really I guess it is OK since I lost 12... The bad was my iron level was bad... worse than 4 weeks ago... I am doing everything the Dr. says (no liquid iron as he said can cause tooth damaged) Well, at the very 1st appointment it was 11.1... I got it to 11.5 at the second appointment... then 11.1 and then 10.5 and today's was 9.7... They are giving me one more month to get it up... with extra iron supplements (till Feb. 5th) if the levels are not up by then ... well then it is time for iron shots... (Weekly) or by IV every 2-3 weeks...I can't take it that... NEEDLES~ you got to be kidding.... I am eating two to three times off the iron group daily... The next appointment is Feb 5th at 1:45 PM...

~Now for the BEST NEWS~ if I can only wait this long.... Friday, Jan. 18th at 9:45 AM we will find out if we are having a boy or girl.... I can't wait... Still trying to figure out if we want to do the 3D/4D ultrasound....in 8 weeks
