FAITH POV: it's been a few days since the doctors appointment. I"m still trying to process everything. It's all alot to take in. Tim keeps wanting to talk about it. But I just don't feel like it. Nothing is going to change my mind about this baby.  I owe it to myself and this baby to give him or her a chance. I've also been more sick during this pregnancy than with the other two girls. I just can't seem to want to eat. When I do eat, it all comes up. At my last appointment I didn't gain any weight not sure if that's good or bad since the doctor didn't say anything, that must not be of a concern at this point. I lie in bed most days while Gracie is at school. Tim has been basically taking care of Maggie during the day while Gracie is at school. When he has to work, he's been taking her with him. Maggie goes to preschool just only 3 days a week and half days. I feel really bad but there's nothing I can do. I'm constantly sick to my stomach. Tim wants me to call the doctor. I wanted to wait but with this I think he's right. I grabbed the phone and dialed the doctors office. "Doctor Peterson's office, this Carrie how may I help you?" The receptionist at the dr's office said who answered the phone "Hello Carrie, this Faith McGraw, I saw Dr Peterson a few days ago, but forgot to mention to him something" "Ok whats going on?" "well I've been really sick throughout this pregnancy so far. Everytime I eat I get sick. I can barely get out of bed most days" "ok hold on, let me see if I can get a nurse for you" "Thank you" I was placed on hold for a few minutes than a nurse picked up the phone" "Hello this is Jennifer" "Hi Jennifer this is Faith McGraw" "Oh hi Faith what can I do for you?" "well I've been really sick to my stomach alot lately. Everytime I eat anything I get sick. I feel like I can barely get out of bed" "ok ummm.. Let me talk with the doctor and I will call you back" "ok thank you bye" "bye"  Ok now to wait for them to call me back. I'm very nervous, I don't want them to put me in the hospital. I than felt something which felt like little butterflys in my stomach.. This is something I haven't felt with the other two girls. I'm worried that one of the reasons why the baby is so small is because I'm not getting much food or liquids in me. Tim is home but is downstairs with Maggie. "TIM" I yelled.. nothing "TIM!" again I yelled I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. "yeah whats wrong?" "I don't know, I'm feeling what feels like litte butterlies in my stomach" "maybe it's the baby moving" "I don't know I never had this with Gracie and Maggie" "ok did you call the doctor?" "yes I did, I'm waiting for a call back" "did you mention to them about this?" "no because it happened afterwards" "have you eaten anything today?" "No not really" "Faith you have to try to eat" "I know Tim, it's just everytime I do, I get sick" "ok I will go downstairs and make you some toast, maybe that will help" He said and left the room.  I think this is the most we have spoken since in the past few days that didn't involve the girls.  The phone rang, that must be the doctor.. "Hello" "Faith, this is Doctor Peterson" "Hi Doctor " "so the nurse tells me you've been getting really sick" "yes, everytime I eat anything" "Ok let me look at your chart. Looks like you really didn't gain any weight.. Hmmm..  Ok can you come in the office now?" "yes" "ok I will let the receptionist and nurse know that as soon as you get here to get you back here in a room" "Ok thank you Doctor,bye" "Ok see you soon bye"  "TIM....TIM" "yeah right here" he said as he brought me some toast. "The doctor just called and wants me to come in now" "Now?" "yes ok, what about Maggie?" "we will just have to take her. but shit" "What.." "Gracie" "ok I will call my mom on the way to see if she can pick her up" "ok" He than helped me up of the bed. I was already dressed. He helped me to the car. I felt so weak, this can't be good.
