Things are looking a bit better than they were on Tuesday. I've been writing very detailed lists of what I eat, how I feel, and what activity I do since yesterday. Hopefully this should help me to get a doc to take a serious look at it and see if something is wrong. There is a thyroid thing that runs in my family; I'm wondering if my thyroid has decided that it's my turn to get it. Or maybe I have a tapeworm. Or maybe it really is multiples (gulp).

We're also going to take Alana's suggestion and write out a copy of the list of questions with contact info, so if the doc doesn't have time to answer questions right then, she can maybe email me some answers later.

I found out that a girl I knew in Victoria (who is, coincidentally, due the same day as I am) had her first pre-natal appointment the same day I did. Her doc did try to hear the heartbeat, AND sent her for an ultrasound this morning. I do have to admit to being a little jealous (also happy for her - it must be exciting), but it gives me hope that maybe I can convince the doc next week to break out the Doppler and at least make an attempt to listen to what Pinchy's up to.
