Dr. Visit

I had another doctor's appointment today. This was the wonderful pelvic exam, eh, I guess that's all part of it. But the best part is hearing the baby's heartbeat. I just love it. It's a wonderful sound! They also measured my belly fat, er belly too. Everything was fine. All tests from the first visit came back okay. I've been having some shortness of breath and my heart has been racing from doing almost nothing, like simply walking up the stairs or even sometimes just going from room to room. I asked the doc about it and he said it was not a problem, normal really. The resting heart rate is increased in pregnant women. He said my heart sounded fine. Okay, I really don't know my body anymore. It's no longer my body! I guess I'll share it, it's worth it. So with no worries I'm going to begin walking. It's been awhile...how many weeks am I? Considering I've been sick since forever and I haven't done much of anything physical, this might be difficult. But now that the weather is beautiful and I'm healthy, there are no excuses!
