Ali ran to my house this morning. We ended up running together for (almost) an hour. She needed to get back for her husband. I added about 35 minutes onto my run from her house. The wind was perhaps the worst I've ever run in before. But after having a rough time last week, it felt so good to get out for a while. Miles were very slow and distance is approximate.
Time 1:32
My first doctor's appointment was this afternoon and the baby is doing well. In the ultrasound, the fetus measured big and my due date was bumped up a bit to August 11. I'm 12 weeks along exactly. I'll take it! Heard the heart beat and all of it was a good way for my pregnancy to feel real. I haven't been sick at all, just tired. Sometimes it takes something like an ultrasound for me to feel like I really am pregnant and not just nutty in the head. Twins run on both sides of our families and it put my mind at rest to see only one fetus. I'd take two in one shot, but it's not my preference. I'm so grateful for a healthy body and the ability to continue a normal routine, which of coarse includes one of my loves...running. Feeling really good.
Wight in the doctor's office: 127lbs (includes 1.5 lbs clothing.) Weighed 125lbs at the doctor's on 11/8/07 with my lowest (that I'm aware of) being 122.5lbs (without clothing at Tammy's) about two weeks before that. Nurse says a healthy weight gain for me will be 35lbs. Twenty eight weeks to go! Next appointment is in 4 weeks. |
