@scatherinem Ha! Now I'm going to imagine that every time I go to the doctor. "I'm gonna tell her she can't have caffeine or lift over 10 pounds! She's gonna freak out!"
Just had my 23-24 wk appt and everything is looking good. HB was 156 and next month will be another sono (to check growth because apparently I had elevated HCG in the first tri, which was news to me) and glucose! Doc made a weird comment that I had gained "a bunch of weight" - ha, I have gained a total of 7 lbs compared to my pre-pregnancy weight! I wouldn't think that is "a bunch" but he's the pro I guess!
Had my 24wk appointment today. Blood pressure, pee in a cup, quick ultrasound, and the lovely glucose test. Yuck! At least it's over so long as I pass the one hour test. IME, the appointments are really short unless you have questions. There's not much they can do aside from talking with you about concerns that you mention.
Had my regular monthly appointment today. Nothing too crazy, blood pressure, pee in a cup and heartbeat. I have to do a second 1 hour glucose test at my next appointment. My first one was fine, but the retest if you have an early one. Oh well.
