PREGNANCY JOURNAL

10/30/99- First doctors appointment; Confirmed my pregnancy.

11/ 28/99- Heard baby's heart beat. It was 162

12/23/99- Ultrasound; Looks like a girl?

1/20/00- Doctors appointment; Can't stand my doctor. He is rude and will not answer my questions. Seems like he doesn't want anything to do with a teen pregnancy.

2/2/00- Doctor appointment. Found a new doctor. She is great! Listened to baby's heart beat again. It think she said it was 156.  She said everything is going great. The baby and I are healthy. 

2/12/00- My sister felt the baby kick. She is the first one to feel the baby move.

2/14/00- Had a big growth spurt. Can't hid my pregnancy under my clothes anymore. 

2/25/00- Starting looking over adoption information and trying to answer all the questions in my head; Will I be able to spend enough time time with my child? If I get a job outside my house, who will raise my child when I am away? Are my parent's going to regret me having this child when its born? Will it just become a nuisances to them? Will he/she be okay without a daddy? 

2-26-00- Had a nightmare.  I was playing hid and go seek, then the next thing I knew I was searching for my baby. I didn't find her either before I wake up.  I could just hear her cry.

2-28-00- Went to the doctor today. They said everything was looking great I am 26weeks and 4days. They have not said anything about my weight gain. Which is kind of high. They said once before that it was steady enough that I was fine. I was just one of those people who put on a lot of weight. ( Lucky me) Oh and also they gave me a bottle of something to drink for a Glucola test. I am going to take it tomorrow. 

2-29-00- Well after waiting 3hours after my last meal. I drank the bottle of whatever that was they gave me for my Glucola test. It tasted like an orange soda. I don't drink soda so it was not the most pleasant thing to drink!  After 50minutes of drinking it and not drinking, or eating anything in between the 50minutes I went to the doctors offices. They took my blood and then I went home. I guess I will find out the results next time I go into see my doctor.   But for the rest of today I have had the worst headack!
