We went to our ultrasound appointment on Friday. It's amazing how much that little one has grown in just a few weeks! It actually looked like a baby! There were arms and legs and we saw that heart beating away! Baby is a ham already. As soon as the baby knew all eyes were on him/her, (s)he started dancing like crazy! Moved the arms, the legs, then a full body wiggle. So cute! The heart beat was in the 170s which is supposed to be really good for this early on. Awesome! I'll post pics soon.
The doc tried to talk me into the flu shots. I told her I was hesitant. I have never had the shot or the flu, and I didn't like the idea of putting extra stuff in my body anyway, especially when there's someone else in there to worry about. She scared the crap out of me though! She said she's got 4 mommies in ICU right now with the flu and one of them doesn't look like she's going to make it. What the heck?!
Fast forward to Monday. I had a conference scheduled for Monday and Tuesday. I woke up feeling crumby, went to the conference and decided to call the doctor about my symptoms (because my OB scared the bejesus out of me). They had me come in, and low and behold, they think it's the flu. Neat. My doctor didn't seem nearly as concerned as I thought she would. She said it's been a mild season and that I will probably be just fine with the regular ole Tamiflu. So here I am, sitting at home instead of at my conference I really want to be at, trying not to think about how yucky I feel. Guess what one of the side effects is of the medicine they gave me... vomiting. So I haven't thrown up one time from being pregnant or having the flu, but I did yack a little thanks to the medicine that's supposed to make me better. Isn't it ironic?
