On Friday I had a doctor’s appointment. For reasons that are unknown, not only do I have the usual morning sickness, but when I eat a meal, I get sweaty, rapid heart beats and greatly fatigued that I immediately go to bed and sleep. When I called the doctor and said these are MS symptoms I never had before, they asked me to come in. The midwife deduced that I am hypoglycemic, and needed to eat smaller meals more frequently. I said that I understand hypoglycemia and am used to the symptoms when I don’t<\/i> eat, but when I eat? She just shrugged and gave me a script for an anti-nausea medicine (which is actually a anti-histamine).
\nAfterwards, she said let’s listen to the baby’s heartbeat. She could not find a heartbeat, which sent me into an instant panic because the last time that happened it was 11 years ago, and an ultrasound determined the baby had died. So I went for an ultrasound and I was so relived to find out the problem was the little bugger just wouldn’t sit still. I was certain I would relive another miscarriage. But there he was kicking up against the walls and propelling himself backwards with his little feet.
\nOh yeah, I said “he” because it looks like another boy. And “he” will probably be five years old before his father and I agree on yet one more boy’s name.
\nIn the meantime, I am still getting sweaty and sick when I eat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
