I went to the doc with my sister, so that
he could do her 6-week check up, and
everything looked good. During the exam
she mentioned that I was pregnant and that
I had been having a little pressure the
last couple days, so he went ahead and
examined me. He said that everything
looked great and that I was carrying well,
but that he doesn’t think that I will make
it to my due date, he said that I would be
lucky to make it past 38 weeks because I
am so small. He encouraged me to eat high
fat foods to gain more weight, and to rest
as much as possible. I am terrified now
that I will have her too early and that
something will be wrong with her.

Even if she came at like 36 weeks or
something.. Normally the babys are fine
then. Dont worry too much. But just do
whatever the doctor things is best. If
she comes early and u do everything ur
supposed to do (as told by the doc) then
its not ur fault and she was just ment to
come early. But most babys are fine after
34 weeks~
Lots of people have their lil ones early.
My niece was exactly 2 months and 3 days
early and yes there were complications and
it was a scary time, she made it and
looking at her today, you'd never, ever
know! I can't promise that if you had her
early she'd be ok but I am sure she will
be! Keep doing what the doc says and just
keep doing a good job!
Love,
chanda

Thanks! I am trying really hard to do
everything I am supposed to, i've gained a
pound since last thursday, so I am 118
now, and gaining slowly. I've been
counting kicks and she is moving around
quiet a bit, her heartbeat was good and
everything. I just want to make it to
august, so I am taking it easy. I called
my boss and told her I wasn't coming in to
work today, I am just going to sit on my
butt and relax the rest of the day.
Thanks again kari and chanda!
