Yesterday we had an appointment with Dr. Nancy. I am loosing weight which is a concern at this point in the pregnancy, the baby should be taking all the nutrients and fat from me. We discussed my diet also. They are thinking that I am eating too many carbs which is making me pass out and in return also making me not have much of an appetite therefore loosing the weight. Dr. Nancy explained the carbs for a pregnant lady like a child having a sugar high. Once you come off the sugar high your body basically crashes. With a pregnant lady the same thing applies...too many carbs and your body crashes. Therefore, change in diet and hopefully I will start gaining weight and lot less passing out. So far, this morning I have tried to stay away from carbs (not easy as I love carbs!) and I have not passed out. I still have headaches but no passing out. I guess I can live with a headache. We are hoping that this will continue and I can get back to work on Monday.
Thanks again for all the emails of thoughts, prayers and concerns. Harry and I are very much blessed with a beautiful family & friends.
