Amoxicillin among other things!

I had a UTI and went to get some antibiotics, I've had Amoxicillin many times before and it has always worked well for me. Well, apparently not when I'm pregnant! I took the prescription for 3 days and had violent vomitting every time I ate or drank anything. It took me 3 days to figure out it might be related to the antibiotic, and sure enough thats what it was. I stopped taking it, luckily enough the UTI was cleared up from whatever remaining antibiotic stayed in my system. The whole experience was like a flashback of the first 3 months of my pregnancy with Julia. Whew, this is just a reaction and hopefully won't be encountered ever again!

Today I had an appointment with Beth (Midwife). Fundal measurement is right on track, baby had a perfect heartbeat at 150 BPM and kicked me several times following the doppler as if to say, "HEY! what the heck was that?!" We finished off the testing, I have to go back for more blood tests because the results somehow never made it back to the clinic. Everything looked good, I don't go back until July 14th. I have an ultrasound on July 8th to look forward to!

I can't even believe it but both me and JON were able to feel baby hiccups yesterday! I didn't realize they would be noticeable to me yet, let alone Jon. I asked my midwife today and she confirmed yes it is definitely possible. They are like little twitches every couple seconds, so beautiful. Even more so was seeing Jon's face as he felt his baby for the first time!

I'm still feeling pretty ill from the antibiotic, my stomach is weak. Another day of taking it easy should hopefully put me back on track.

Lots to look forward to this summer, the ultrasound will surely be a highlight.

Also, we have officially decided we will be waiting til baby's birth day to find out if the baby is a he or a she! I will be asking for everyone's guesses on sex, birthday, weight, etc. soon so we can have it written down for later! So far the majority think blue, can't wait to see what everyone thinks!
