OK so insanely intense day. Basically I haven't kept anything down for like 3 days. I went in for a normal OB check today and told the midwife how sick I've been. They took some urine and said that it was really concentrated. SO the midwife wanted to get some fluids in me and give me some Zofran. But she wanted to find the fetal heart sounds first. SO she checked and checked for a really long time. After about 5 mins of trying and even getting another midwife to try. SHe told me: " Meliisa, It could be ther reason you've been so sick is that you don't have a viable pregnancey" " I need to find a doctor who will do an ultrasound to find out if it's ok" Alright so this is where I had a major breakdown. I couldn't believe this was happening to me again. So they must have been pretty freaked because I was in for the ultra sound in under 10 mins. But within 30 seconds the doctor was like "well that's what I needed" The tec turns the screen towards me and points to a little plusating dot. "theres the heart rythum" Well those were some of the sweetest words I've heard in a long time!! The doctor tells me "well I feel better!" I'm like "YOU FEEL BETTER?!?!!?" SO they sent me back to the safe and loving arms of my lovely midwife. Who pumped me full of 2 bags of fluids and zofran. SHe also ordered me to take B12 3 times a day and drink ensure because my protien was low. I also got a potassium shot and was told to eat bananas. SO after 4 hours in the clinic I was sent home. I'm feeling slightly weak but my mind is at ease. AND I have 2 tiny little pictures of my little peanut.

Bananas are excellent for potassium. I have to remember to eat them myself, or else I get horrendously evil leg and foot craps, like um...I foget what they are called exactly, but if it happens in the middle of the night, I end up waking up screaming and crying. Nanners are my bestest friend!!!
