not so buldging belly yet

So week 16 is here but I still don't look pregnant. To every other person on the street I am just another person with too much belly flap. No cravings, no more nausea( not that I had for very long). If it wasn't for the sonograms that show one very squashed skeleton and my very buldging breasts I would still not believe that I was pregnant.
Week 15 was full of drama- my doctor refused to see me because I requested my medical records and my ever dedictated husband had to step into the role of a lawyer. So week 16 found me with a whole bunch of medical records but no Ob/Gyn. I summoned all possible sources to find a good doctor and thanks to many great friends I feel much more confident that I will soon have an awesome doctor who will take good care of me and deliver my baby without any more drama.
Monday I found myself in the Lenox Hill Hospital ( where if everything goes according to plan I would give birth sometime hopefully before decmeber 24th). I had chest pains and headache and over all didn't feel good at all so I grabed a cab and met Jeff in the ER. After many tests including EKG and doppler the freshly new doctor ( first day) send me home with prescriptions to ease my headache and indigestion. Nothing really helps the headache but good old coke. As far as indigestion I am still not convinced it was .
Week 16 found me in much better mood since I am not working any more and actually feel like I have time to breathe and realize that I am pregnant. I think now I can actually enjoy growing a life inside of me, and figure out what needs to be done, bought, organized and still be utterly surprised.
Finally had an opportunity to start a blog- something I have been wanting to do for a while, so I can go back and read this years later and laugh.Also a great way to share my journey with my frineds and may be a whole bunch of strangers.
