Alana, thanks for the perspective. I'm so sorry to hear of the elevated heart rate for Reed, but am glad they are monitoring it. What a lousy time to lose your OB! I completely understand about the chocolate and if you had to give that up....I was just telling my husband how frustrating it felt to think I would have to follow a special diet--almost feels like punishment when I've always tried to be sensible. In fact, one of the things I've enjoyed was ;etting go a bit and indulging myself a bit more in this pregnancy, satisfying cravings etc.
Now in the last trimester, with all the discomfort, and the oppressive heat I realize I'll be relieved to get these babies delivered and move onto the next phase in this adventure!
