peri appt update and AW my DH

wishingforpositive21

Our appointment went great!  Hailey looks absolutely wonderful and healthy!  She is a little over what baby center says she should weigh and is weighing in at 4lbs even!  last month she was at 2lbs and I am kind of like... umm gaining 2 lbs a month is looking like an 8lb baby for me lol!  The doc said its fine she isn't too big so that is good!  I got to see her practice breathing, her little lungs looked so cute expanding!  Unfortunately thanks to my GD, thyroid and other slew of problems I now have to be seen by the peri TWICE a WEEK for quick u/s to check heart, lungs and growth then they put me on the FHM for 20 minutes.  Going to get tired of seeing the doc but I know it's best to be cautious! 

As for my ridiculous "cold" it has been a miserable day now not only is my throat dry and sore along with the hurting ears but I am horribly stopped up!  The peri nurse suggested benedryl tonight and I was like ok... well we got home and I sent DH for cough drops and to let him buy his new black ops game or whatever lol and he brought me home a humidifier   we hadn't bought one yet and I LOVE elephants so he got me the cute elephant from target... i thought this was too sweet!  However, i keep getting worse so called my OB and told her my symptoms and that i feel a little febrile but not anything crazy and she spoke like an angel saying "eh lets call ya in a z pack"... SCORE!!!  thank you ladies for all your kind words last night and this morning... sick + pregnancy = AWFUL

I saw her practice breathing at 24-25 weeks and the doctor said that's a great sign.  It's definitely cute to see!

I know how tiring it is to go in for BPPs and NSTs once a week, I couldn't imagine having to do it twice a week. But it is very reassuring to know that everything is going good with baby!
