Doctor's appointment went just fine. We didn't do the ultrasound, but we listened to the heartbeat (138bpm - sounds like a 12" dance mix). Everything is fine (so don't worry, Mom) and I go back in two weeks for a "Glucose Tolerance Test" -- usually done between 24 and 28 weeks, and I'm at 22.
Boss returns at the end of this week. I will have to practice gritting my teeth and biting my tongue. Ah, it was good while it lasted.
About Me
- Mugs
- I'm originally from North America and I work in the travel industry. I started this blog when I was living in Baltic Europe and wanted to keep family and friends updated on my first pregnancy. I took maternity leave for a year, and came a little closer to figuring out what I want to be when I grow up - but alas, the job of "Katharine Hepburn" was taken. So after fifteen months of Stay-at-Home-Mom-hood, I returned to the workforce in January 2006. My husband and I have a daughter born in 2004 and a son born in 2006 (known on this blog as "Gigi" and "Halley" respectively). My company transferred me to a nice warm island in July 2006, where I get to spend the next three years (at least!) So why the name "Purple Scare"? Because when I created the blog, I was living behind the Rusted Iron Curtain, and I like the color purple more than red. Write me at purplescareblog@gmail.com.
