Baby Fekkes is doing well. Baby's heartbeat was strong and steady. I'm measuring exactly where I should. My midwife has changed my diet to determine the cause of my continued sickness. She thinks I'm not eating enough (every two hours) or taking in enough protein and too many carbs. My blood sugar is crashing and causing headaches, but this doesn't seem to be affecting the baby. Today we met with a the backup midwife. She was much more direct and bossy, which was nice because she scolded me on my current diet. She was really comfortable to be around and encouraging. It is nice to know that if our primary midwife can't be there when we deliver that the secondary is just as amazing. Happy 16 weeks to the Fekkes' Family!
I have the go ahead to travel to Seattle! However, I have been ordered to carry around cold chicken in my purse on the plane and to stretch my legs every hour. I'm low-risk still, but border-line immune to Rubella. Hum...the test wasn't conclusive enough...so we will retest again after the baby is born. I officially tested O+ so we don't have to worry about ROGAM!
