I called my derm. a week ago to ask her opinion on how my skin would react to pregnancy. A week later she called me back, better late than never! :) She told me that i was more prone to stretch marks (who cares?) & needed to gain healthy weight (sounds crazy to me since in my opinion I'm a pig lol, always eating!)..
She also mentioned that hydration would possibly be an issue and she didn't know if id carry full term due to my skin might not stretch AS much as needed. Hydration? Hook my butt up to an IV and pump fluids into me! The only thing that really makes me nervous is not carrying full term. But I'm trying to completely remain positive! I mean really, we got this!
It also helped tons that she sounded so positive about everything! She talked about how she's done research like crazy, talked to other doctors from other places and everything. She also recommended a babydoctor in Memphis. Memphis is an hour away from us and is where i was born. Luckily we know a few doctors there and the ones that delivered me are still there! Thank God!
I'm loving all the good news! Here's more!....
-hadn't had a single dip in 2 days!
-I'm done drinking, even when we're all hanging out with friends. (not that we drink alot at all but we'd celebrate birthdays, cooking out, watching football, etc.. With a beer or 5)
-I'm going to start eating healthier even if it tastes awful.
Well that's all the good news for today. :) Any tips? Share em! Don't forget to pray.
