It went well, I got there 20 minutes late, which mans I hardly had to wait to get in.
I weigh 210 1/4 - which is about 6 pounds more than 4 weeks ago. Yay! My diabetes test came back negative, so I have no other excuse for te weight gain than plain ol overeating. (I started out at 175... well, 165 if you count the weight I put on post-doctor-confirming-pregnancy - but I was getting married, and I moved... so there... lol So I`ve gained 45 pounds in total. Yuck. But the positive side is, now I have my appointments at evry 2 weeks...and in 2 weeks, I need to have my insides checked again. I hate HATE having my innards poked at by the doctor, especially when they`re really sensitive. I`m not retaining as much water as I was last appointment, and the doctor commended me on drinnking lots of water... he said I did a good job these last 4 weeks. I`m measuring right at 30 weeks.... and he re-assured me that the baby should not come too early - but that if the baby comes after 37 weeks, they won`t stop the birth from happening. (I had really intense feelings that the baby would be like 5 weeks early from the due date - 3 weeks is ok. ) He stressed that it was important for me to rest, since I have muscle pain in my bach and I feel nautious alot - he said that it could be signs that I`m not resting enough. He looked at my DH when he said that... So I guess I get to put my feet up a little more! He said that next appointment we can go over what I`d like at the birth - as in, meds, no meds, meds on standby, access to a hut tub or not, accessories like a birthing ball... yadda yadda.... I`m getting excited! -------------------- The richest people don't have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.
