12 Week Check Up!

Friday, February 3, 2012



On January 26, we went in for our 12 week ultrasound. Alli and Kiko went with me. I love watching Allison look at the screen and try to figure out whats going on in my uterus. Everything looked great with Baby Vargas Dos. It looks like a little cage fighter bouncing around in there.

Thank goodness I only have a week left until I'm in my second trimester. This first trimester has not been easy. So far, I have lost 16 lbs (and I had no weight to drop in the first place). Because I lost so much weight, my blood pressure dropped very low. I should be around 120/90 and I am 85/50. Not good! I'm on a modified bedrest. I can only be on my feet for 6 hours and not at a time.

I am very positive that I will gain the weight that I need to! I just need to listen to my doctor and Kiko and listen to what they say!

How far along? 12 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: -14 .... morning sickness is no joke.
Maternity clothes? I just have a pair of black maternity pants. Trying to hold off.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I want to sleep all day every day!
Best moment this week: Having Alli at our 12 week ultrasound!
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? Wine! Sometimes you just need a glass.
Movement: Not yet.
Food cravings: Tacos and salad.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Eggs, air, coffee, men from other countries with too much cologne that come into my office.
Have you started to show yet: Very tiny jump.
Gender prediction: I seriously have no clue.
Labor Signs: No.
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Sleepy!
Weekly Wisdom: If you feel so sick that you don't want to eat (even if you don't actually throw up) tell your doctor so you can get some medicine! It helps!
Looking forward to: Gaining weight so my blood pressure goes up and all of these problems go away!
