Tomorrow's Big Appointment

I am anticipating tomorrow's appointment. I wish today would hurry up. I am waiting for the wash of relief I think I will feel when I see a little body in a womb on the screen and hear a heartbeat. Something is certainly sending me to the bathroom every hour during the night and sapping my energy.





I've had a lot of abdominal pain this past weekend which is increasing my stress level. I keep telling myself it's just a growing womb and hope the doctor will concur. Yesterday at Walmart I was almost in tears although the pain wasn't that bad. I'm just tired of being frightened and nervous. It really drains me.





I can't wait to hold that little black and white photo in my hands and pray over it and nickname it. I don't think I'll sleep much tonight. I'm about to start my list of questions for the doctor...





1. Can I work out? Should I be more careful having had a miscarriage?


2. Can I have a sip of wine at Girls' Weekend?


3. Can I keep taking my baths?


4. Is my c-section scar going to make my womb thin or susceptible to tearing/ endanger the baby?


5. Can they put me to sleep again for this c-section?


6. Advice on caffeine?


7. Craving goat cheese...


8. What is my due date?





And on and on and on. Gosh, did I learn nothing with my first pregnancy???


9 months from mid-November is...mid-August. Great...I avoid swimsuit season entirely.





Praying for peace and cessation of worries.
