In the craziness that was last week, I forgot to actually post on the blog! Whoops! We had our second appointment, which was definitely the highlight of the week. We scheduled an ultrasound for a few weeks from now (hooray!) and we got to hear our kiwi's heartbeat again. It was beating strong at about 155bpm. Perfectly healthy for this point.

My symptoms this week were all out of sorts, mainly because I got a bug Monday and Tuesday. I wasn't feeling too well all day Monday, but pressed on to clean the house and get things done in preparation for the ceiling work we are having done next week. After dinner, I progressively felt worse and worse until I finally started getting sick Monday evening. And then Grant got sick, too. It was not the most pleasant 24 hours, but we rebounded fairly quickly, I belive because we had many people praying for us :)

The most exciting part about this past week was our second appointment. This one was even more exciting for me than the first one. We were so looking forward to hearing kiwi's heartbeat again. We even got an audio recording of it this time so that we could share it with our parents!

The most difficult part...well, obviously, being sick. It's never ideal, and especially while pregnant. I did lose quite a bit of weight, but we were only sick for about 24 hours, so some of it was water weight that came back right away. My goal for now is to stay healthy and keep eating!
