I've always been a fan of lemons. The saltier the better, in my opinion.
And right now, I'm craving salty lemons. When I was a kid, my parents
used to get so mad at me for eating them, citing harm to my teeth as the
reason behind their aggravation. I think it was really because I was
eating them and they wanted them. Anyway. I've been inhaling lemons and
tomatoes, with salt, of course. I don't know what that means exactly,
but I'm anticipating elevated blood pressure during this pregnancy. I've
GOT to get my salt cravings under control. Asap.
So this week is our first doctors appointment. I would have already gone
in, between Bob's work schedule and Dr. J's maternity leave, it's been a
nightmare. Doc returns to work Monday and Bob comes home on Wednesday.
So Thursday, we'll go in and check this little nugget out on an
ultrasound. I'm pretty pumped about it! I'm ready. I think.
I'll just say- I adore my doctor. I've only seen her once before, last
year at my check up, but she was so awesome. When I saw her last year,
it was after a long summer of funerals, a wedding, a cross country move,
and getting used to Bob being gone all the time. To say I was in a bad
place mentally would be an understatement. During my appointment, she
just talked to me. As a friend. As a person. We spent 20 minutes just
chatting about anything and everything. She immediately made me feel
comfortable. I'd never had a female gynecologist before, which I told
her, so she made it all super easy and open. I'm excited to experience
this with her!
