Martin's job is sending us back to the PNW. I'm not getting on a plane because it's shortly after 9/11. So I decided to take the train back home. My Maltese dog and Martin fly back because animals are not allowed on the train.
I'm feeling extremely anxious about this pregnancy and I can't wait to get to a doctor. I can't help but feel the worst is going to happen. After my last experience being pregnant means that I can lose another child and or die.
I get home and find a great peri-natologist and she sees the fear in my eyes; I'm terrified! We decide to put a cervical cerclage in at 14 weeks of pregnancy and she also puts me on an anti-depressant. I am very careful and am on bedrest after the same day surgery of having my cerclage put in.
Martin and I are going to the doctors once a week for ultra sounds. This makes me feel better because I can be reassured all is fine. I am also being closely monitored for my blood pressure issues.
I can't allow myself to be excited until I hit the 32 week mark and it seems as if the days are going by so slow. I rented another monitor so I could hear my babies heart beat.
