OB Appointment!!!!

[SarahsMom]

Hi ladies,

I had my OB/GYN appointment today, Chase is doing fine, my OB said he's happy as can be in there. My heart rate was a little elevated (I've noticed over the last couple days that it's spiked to about 95 - 100 bpm It's usually 83 - 88). My OB said he counted it at 105 bpm (NERVES)!!! Anyway, he wanted me to go up on my Toprol - to 100MG's/per day. He said he wants to relax my heart as much as possible and as the baby grows, we may need to increase depending the stress of the heart. They're also running a blood test to check my iron (low iron can cause a rapid heartrate). Anyway, my first echo is next Tuesday. Second Trimester - HERE WE GO!!!!

Guys, please pray for 55%+ for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kari - I can only imagine the fears and thoughts that go through your mind as you lay in bed each night thinking of this little life that God has created and is growing inside of you but also being consumed with worrying about your health. I hope and pray that your EF is beyond great and that your heart looks great. I pray that God's hand will be on both your life and this little guy's life and that you both continue to do well and grow. What a blessing to have this baby!

It's great to hear that you are doing well. I am sure your echo results will be just fine. Did you have your CVS test? How did that go?
