5th Appointment

I just got back a little while ago from the doctor’s office. This was just a regular appointment (no ultrasound). But, I still love going because I get to at least hear Brooke’s heartbeat! Becky, the nurse, was having a little trouble for a second finding the heartbeat, but then it came in strong at 150 bpm. I don’t think Brooke likes going to the doctor because just like last time she kept trying to hide. I told the doctor about a few of the things I’ve been feeling (pain in my side, Braxton Hicks contractions and being so tired), but he said all that is normal and there’s not anything to do about them. Besides those few things, I feel absolutely great! I love being pregnant and feeling Brooke move all around, which she’s doing now! Dr. Kirshon said he wants to start seeing me every 2 weeks so my next appointment is on June 16^th. He said it’s just because I’m high risk since I have MS. Having my appointments only 2 weeks apart now is just a reminder that it’s getting close to Brooke getting here!

Love,

Brooke’s Mommy!
