I had my first appointment with my own OB today. To be truthful, I had the tiny thought that I might get a little lecture for sitting in his office there again so soon. Mia is, after all, only just one. As I was walking in to the exam room, Dr. A was out in the hall saying goodbye to another patient. He saw me and smirked a little. I hid my face behind my "new pregnancy" folder. My nurse just laughed and said, "Busted!!!" Turns out Dr. A didn't have anything to say about the spacing of these pregnancies at all (whew!!!). He is very supportive of surrogacy, and he knows that I love to be pregnant- he just smiled and said "welcome back!". I got to see baby again this morning, too. It's amazing the changes that can take place over the course of five days. Little Sethbryo had a perfect heartbeat, and was rolling around and happy in there. :)
I am still having some pretty awesome nausea- but not as often as I was before. I have left the all day nausea behind (for the most part), and have returned to feeling sick mostly in the evenings. My pregnancy BFF is showing herself already though...... hunka hunka burning... heart??? I keep hoping that I'll have at least one pregnancy where my chest doesn't feel like it's on fire from mid first trimester on. It seems that this will not be that pregnancy either. Ah, sweet sweet Zantac, how I love you.
On another note, my 16 week pregnant friend is jealous of my 8 week pregnant baby belly. No, for real. I keep telling her, you have to remember- this is #5!!! My body registers those pregnancy hormones, and that little beating heart and screams "WOOHOO!!!! Let's let it ALL hang out!!!". The "belly" in my pic is all leftover from previous pregnancies for sure, but I can't suck it in anymore.... ;)
