Sorry it has been so long since our last post. There's not much really to report - we are going to the doctor every two weeks. Our most recent appointment was today.
Jennifer has had a rough week. She started to feel a little better with her morning sickness, but developed a pretty bad cold. She ran a little fever on Saturday (around 99.7 or so), but we were able to get it down quickly. The doctor said today that the pregnancy hormone makes your fever go up some, so they don't worry unless it gets around 101. Then yesterday, we think Jennifer had a stomach bug...besides the little one in her tummy! She couldn't keep anything down. That ran on into this morning, but she's been fine this afternoon and tonight. When we described everything to the doctor, she thought it was something other than "pregnancy sickness."
At our last appointment, Jennifer's blood pressure was up a little. The doctor wasn't alarmed, but put her on a low dose of medication, just for the baby's sake. Today, her blood pressure was up again. So please keep this as a matter of prayer. The doctor increased the dosage of her medication, but she's still not alarmed since Jennifer has been sick and taken decongestant (which was approved for pregnant women).
I'm going this week to see what we can do about the camera. Hopefully, we can get it fixed and post some pictures soon.

Why is she having to go every two weeks? Because of the blood pressure problem or the sickness problem?
We're not really sure, but we think it's because of the blood pressure problem. They just want to keep a close watch on it. And she's doing better with it, too.
