Running a Marathon

Yesterday I had my 15 week check with my OB, Dr. S. & that is what he said to me. You will be running a marathon in October & now its time to start training for it. He wants me to start exercising 4-5 times a week to train for the marathon of giving birth which shouldn't be a problem since I am starting to feel like myself again. The nausa has returned but its not a harsh as it originally was. The biggest difference is that meat of any kind is a huge turn off. The smell & taste of it is really bad, unless its mexican food which I crave all the time along with ice cream.

Back to the actual appointment, we got to hear BB's heartbeat which took the CMA 5-10 minutes to find which had Chris & I a little concerned at first but I think she was looking too high. BB was positioned really low (which makes since because my baby bump to low too) & her heartbeat was 148. It was a lot slower than the last time we heard it (179) but they said she still sounded good - maybe she was sleeping. Dr. S also said my weight & blood pressure was really good too. We will have an ultra sound next week with the specialist which we are eager to see her again. My mother said over the weekend that maybe when we see her next week it will help us pick out her name. We have it narrowed down to 4-5 names but having some trouble actually deciding. I will be sure to pass along her name once we finalize one.
