I finally got to meet with my own Dr. on Friday! And we heard the heartbeat!!! And a kick! It was a great appointment. Frankly I had been dreading since I got pregnant since I knew how strongly he wanted me to have the weightloss surgery before getting pregnant. So much so he wanted me on the pill while I was on glucophage. I think he actually forgot about this because he thanked me for trusting him regarding the glucophage and it's ability to get me pregnant. He was so excited. He did say that he doesn't want me to gain any weight in the pregnancy and I'm actually ok with that, I just don't know how I could spread 15 pounds out over the next 27 weeks. But I can maintain weight and not gain, so that's what we'll do. The office is still setting me up with a nutritionist so we'll see how that goes- I'm excited.
I felt well enough to go to church- but forgot to eat breakfast so I was wrecked by 1 pm. Learn Stephanie! Use your survival insticts!
P.S. Dr. Smith also wants me to go back on the glucophage while I'm pregnant and that terrifies me. G-phage made me so sick it became a verb in our house. "Vommmmmittttttt, ugh I'm phaging, vommmmmittttt" I didn't even consider I might be pregnant becasue I was so sick from the medicine and now that I'm beginning to feel better I can't imagine self inducing nausea. Be brave.
