I was in and out in 45min fastest yet.
The Dr walked into the room and said ah my unicornuate lady...lol. He then said lets lay you down and measure that belly of yours. I lay down pull my shirt up adjust my pants then he chuckles and said still all left I see, he measured my belly and it was measuring 23w (little man still seems to be ahead) then he pulls out the doppler to check Orions Heart rate which was at 154bpm (I think he expects more of a reaction out of me when he listen to the h/b but I have told him I have a doppler at home that I can listen to all I want)
I weighed in at 55.5 kilo (122.1 lbs) up 2.5 pounds from last appt.
my b/p was 112/70
sugar levels normal.
U/S on Monday and next Dr appt in 2w July 12, he said he will do a gental internal exam then...(what is gental about that, some man other then my DH poking and prodding me you know where..)
Orion is more active everyday, I love feeling and watching my belly move.
Tonight I was watching my belly jump around and told DH to come see and ofcourse Orion stops when Daddy comes over...lol... so DH started to talk to him saying Orion this is your father speaking, yes I am your father..... he starts to tickle my belly and I laugh and he says look look he's moving & we just laughed... then DH says Orion come out and play (pause) wait no don't come out and play yet(as dh is shaking his finger at my tummy)...stay in there. I just started to laugh so hard, DH just kept saying you stay in there Orion don't listen to me just yet...
All is good today.

A Dear friends Angel
A dear close friend gained a new angel
For A Moment
I saw for just a moment, your little arms and legs.
The little blur they said was you, but now you've gone away.
I heard for just a moment,the beating of your heart.
The sound that held such promise, but soon it would depart.
I dreamt for just a moment,of the day I'd hold you tight.
I'd listen for your little breath, and rock you through the night.
I cried for just a moment, when they said that you had gone.
I laid alone in silence, that seemed so very long.
I prayed for just a moment,that you would be reborn.
Into my arms you would come and forever would be warm.
I was for just a moment, the mother of a child.
Who laughed and cried and ment so much, if only for a while.
In that single moment,when I finally said farewell.
I knew that we would meet again little baby, for time will only tell.

My thoughts are with you my dear friend........
22 weeks ......
wow I am 22w1d pg with my little man Orion, he move much more now still stomping on my cervix and I keep telling him it is not time yet to be knocking.
I had a bad dream (nightmare) the other night, I was trying so hard to wake up but I could not (I hate that) but I was dreaming I started to bleed and it was a lot scared the crap out of me. When I was finally able to wake I went to the washroom drained the bladder and checked the TP and YEAH no pink or red stuff anywhere. The mind is a mean mean thing to us sometimes.
My next Dr appt is on June 28 and next U/S in on July 4th and Dh's dad is even coming to that along with my parents. I also will be booking a 3d u/s when I am 24w at a place called Ultrasound Preview, they give you photos and a CD in 3d of you baby ofcourse at a cost but it is worth every penny.
Last weekend my mum and I planted some flowers because It finally stopped raining then it got HOT, and I could not water them because a warning was put for the City of C not to water for the grass, gardens or wash vehicles till further notice but people did not listen to the warning because the residents in City of C went nuts in using water after the rain flooded everything, if y So the Mayor put a ban on the use of water outside and also restricted water use inside the homes if you were caught using the water outside or over the allotted time they'd give you a nice little ticket in your pocket.
The water filtering system was having a hard time keeping up with cleaning the water and it was a matter of time for the water to become pa luted.
Well more rain expected for today and thru to Tuesday, the good thing my flowers get watered and the grass is very green. ... Always look at the positive side right.
I will have to post pictures of my Sweet Williams that I planted last year they are blooming this year and they are beautiful (planted in memory of our son William)

IVIG today (only 2 more left)
21 weeks today! I can not believe it two more IVIG's and I will be 28w along I still can not believe I am this far and Orion is so active I just love it. I ended up being in a room with a bunch of seniors and they kept checking me out you could see it in there eyes wondering why is she here.
The nurses came in they put a warm cloth around my left wrist to prepare the veins, then she got the Gamma with the saline drip ready hooked it all up then uncovered my hand and inserted the needle (I will say they are good at it because 8 time out of 10 I do not feel them do it, I even watch them.) they always say here is a poke and well I am waiting ... lol. When the nurse was done she asked how everything was going and how far I was, when I told her I was 21weeks she said wow you a hardly show (meanwhile I am think yes I am showing I can not fit into my regular clothes and my belly does stick out, I want to be showing, I want to show the world)
I finished my book while there "No One To Trust" by Iris Johansen. She is a good author I enjoy reading her books.
After my IVIG I went to the mall to look for a b-day gift for my Nephew "T" he is turning 12yrs on Saturday. I ended up going in to Thyme Maternity and tried on some jeans and tops but as I was looking at the clothes on the rack the sales lady (who is very good by the way) came up and asked to help me, then she asked the loaded question "Is this your 1st pregnancy?" I looked at her and said "well, no, not really (long pause) this is my 6th pregnancy but 1st baby" She looks at me and says "You have had 5 miscarriages?" "Were they all early losses? I'm sorry to hear that" I said "No, not all early and it is something you learn to deal with and keep trucking alone" She smiled and said "Good for you." .... I never really know what to say in these situations when people ask if this is my 1st pg or baby. I find I am getting asked that question much more often now, and every time all my little angels go thru my head.
I can not say yes to that because I feel like I am betraying my other pg's. I always respond "No, not 1st pg but 1st baby to get this far." Then you see the question in there eyes and I just don't want to explain it to them but yet I cannot say no..... I am pretty open about my journey and I do find it opens doors for others to talk.
I walked out of the store with 2 pairs of pants and 2 tops spent more then I wanted to.....(that is why she was good, she kept bringing me clothes to try on.. lol) She to also said I was not showing to much....( I just want to say YES I am showing!!! ... LOL)
--
I also bought DH a "Father to be, Fathers day card" Telling him he is going to be a great daddy to this little boy. Because he is understanding, positive looks for the good in all and also sensitive.

Saw Family Dr today...
I booked an appointment to see DR N today because my synthroid pills are getting low.
I show up at her office there are 3 other people waiting. One of the patient rooms open and out comes to adorable little girls ages about 4/5 and 1/2 the mom was still in the other room for a few more minutes and the little girls were entertaining all in the waiting room, we were chuckling because the 5yr old was trying to act so grown up watching her baby sister ....
It was my turn to enter the next waiting area "patient room" and as the nurse closes the door Dr N opens it up again I look up and said wow that was the fastest yet.. lol ... she laughed.
She looks at me with a big big smile and says come on now stand up let me see this miracle growing, So I stand up show her my belly she get down on her knees and pulls my top up and exposed my belly... lol... she say just perfect. I showed her my u/s photos she looked at every single one with this smile on her face and said I can't think of anyone more deserving then this right now. She then told me that Dr S sent a letter to her telling her that they were quiet please at the way DH & I handle all that we have been threw with such a positive attitude and that we were a strong couple that would make wonderful parents.
I find out my TSH results on Monday if they need to be upped or left were they are and get check ever 8w (for the next 24w)

Tap tap tap.....
as Orion taps on my cervix, feels like my cervix is pulsing.
Had my 19w6d Dr appointment today. Surprisingly I walk in an they take my right away I was shocked I said to the nurse "no waiting today" she laughed and said nope today is a good day.
I wait maybe 5min when Dr O walks in ask how I am doing? I told him what I was feeling and he said that is very possible that he is kicking my cervix then he asked if I feel him kicking anywhere else and I do usually up by my ribs or on my side I even feel him when I put my hand on my tummy and push in slightly, he said that is good. I lay down so he can measure my tummy ( I did not get the measurements) He chuckles and say you really are a left unicornute your all left. He then felt around my tummy on the right nothing there left all baby.. lol. listened for Orion's heart beat and it was beating nicely at 148bpm. He then said lets check your cervix to make sure that what your feeling is nothing else. He leave the room while I change and think "why do they leave the room, he is going to see me naked anyways in fact he sees me more then my DH does now." Dr O came back and did a real quick check (It is like no one wants to mess around with my cervix to much) and all was great nice and long and still closed.
Dr O said to come back in 3weeks then I asked if I was having another u/s he said yes in 4weeks.
