So today was my doctor's appointment. I was nervous for so many reasons. 1. this was my first time going to the doctor alone. I felt as if all eyes were on me until I noticed that every pregnant woman in there was there alone. 2. I was nervous because I knew I'd hear little Deuce-Y's heartbeat for the first time. I had no idea how I would react. I didn't know if I should expect tears or what. and 3. I was nervous about my weigh in. My weight has been a constant issue for me (and apparently only me) since I became pregnant. Not to get off topic but according to my doctor I gained 2 lbs which puts me at 194. I got highly upset and even started crying. She tried her best to console me because she said 2 lbs was good but I was not having it. I weigh myself DAILY and it never goes over 193. So to let you know my mindset prior to the heartbeat, I was PISSED!
Ok so now it's time to listen to my baby's heart. Prior to the gel on my belly and etc, I told my doctor that Deuce was on my left chilling. Listen, me and Deuce go together like ham and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, milk and cookies.....we're tight! I know my child and my child knows me. She had been tap dancing across my uterus as if I was playing Hammer's You Cant Touch This all day. She finally had settled down at around 1 pm in the left side of my uterus. My doctor's appointment was at 2. So anyhoo the moral of the story is I told my doctor WHERE my child was and what does she do. She heads for the middle....no Deuce. She then moves to the right .... no Deuce. Meanwhile I'm recording all of this. I had to cut the video for the sake of time. Finally she goes to the left and what do we hear? Boom boom boom! Little Deuce!!!! What a feeling!!! I've listened to that heartbeat at least 10 times. She's in there and she's strong.
So at the very end you can hear the doctor say that Deuce's heartbeat was at 155. Once my sister heard this she further went into her chants of
lol
