My blood work all came back good (immune to German measles, thyroid was good, iron levels were good, etc.). Odds of baby having Downs is 1 in 10,000 (she said this was good). She measured my uterus/tummy and said "you're definitely growing." I asked her if there was any way I'm carrying twins and she said no. :) We heard the heartbeat again and the dr. said the baby was moving around a lot. I'm up 3lbs since the last appointment, 5 total. They said that was normal. I might not share weight info later if I'm gaining a lot. :)
I also found out it's ok to indulge in hollandaise sauce every once in a while. I LOVE eggs benedict but heard the sauce has raw eggs in it and you should avoid it when pregnant. I actually haven't had it since I was about 4 weeks along but something tells me I'll be having it more often. I get together with friends once a month for breakfast, and now Rob and I go to breakfast after each appointment. I'll definately be having at eggs benedict least once a month.
We'll be back to the dr.'s in 2.5 weeks to find out the gender!
This week, baby is the size of an apple.
