My doctor is apparently extremely popular or extremely lazy, either way I wasn't able to get my first appt. until November 2. Sick of being sick I called in yesterday to see if there was anything they could do for me and they offered to try a B6 injection (nothing like adding a throbbing arm to the joys of all day nausea). They were able to fit me in this morning. While I was there I asked a few questions, "Why does my belly look like I'm 5 months pregnant, but my weight continues to drop?" It's a very odd feeling to look down at the scale and see a weight I couldn't have dreamed of in my fittest days and yet barely be able to see the scale because a giant belly is in the way...weird.
Question number 2, "is it possible that my baby is dead right now and I won't know until November 2 when I come in for my first appt?" It had the effect I was hoping for, the nurse offered to see if we could hear a heartbeat and I am happy to report that baby shummy-sugiyummy is still alive and well!

YES!!!!! We love heartbeats!!! Aren't they the bomb? Always one of the most exciting parts of the doctor visits. Soooooo exciting.
Maybe the idea of the B6 shot is that the throbbing will take your mind off your nausea.
I already told you that I was stoked, but Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I hope you are trying to get some Gatorade or something down to keep your electrolytes from being too out of whack. Either way, just keep that heart beat going!!
