Yesterday I had my 3rd prenatal visit and was able to hear the heartbeat for the first time! Matt wasn't able to make it due to work, so he's jealous... But next month we get to have an ultrasound, so that should make up for it. :)
Monthy stats:
Weight: -1lb (-5lbs total)
Waist: +1"
Hips: +.5"
I've made some changes to my diet by cutting way back on refined carbs and sugars as well as am now religiously taking probiotics in hopes of restoring some balance to my digestive tract. In combination with the steriods, there appears to have been a slight improvement, however, there is still a lot of abdominal pain which could be irritated scar tissue or possible inflamation from active Crohn's. Unfortunately, they can't run the tests that would determine that conclusively. My OB also gave me a prescription for Protonix to see if I can get some relief from the burning sensation in my upper abdomen. I think that's all for this week, but I'll try to get a new belly pic posted today, too!
