11 Weeks
I was still really sick during week 11, and my total weight loss capped at 18 pounds, putting me at a measly 114 pounds. I ended up having to go back to the ER this week (which was in Branson, MO when we were on vacation) because I was spotting for 8 days straight, which is generally the sign of a miscarriage, but PRAISE THE LORD everything was fine. There didn't end up being a reason to be concerned, and it was most likely the placenta starting to take over! t thought I was starting to get out of the vomiting stage, but unfortunately, after a five day break, it returned in full force. Side note: I may never eat Olive Garden's salad again.
12 Weeks
I went back to the ER for the fourth time this week, the third time for fluids. I was vomiting even with the Zofran and Phenergan going directly into my bloodstream via IV, so I was admitted overnight. I had the same ER doctor that I had the first time, and he's great- best one there! He knew I didn't want to stay the night, so he snuck in the ultrasound machine to take a quick peek at Baby Soltow, who is apparently going to be an Olympic gymnast! The baby was bouncing from wall to wall, stopped and waved at us, and then started sucking his/her thumb! It was so cool to see the baby's sweet fingers and toes! <3
